What reading level is The Religion of Geology And Its Connected Sciences [microform] book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But he adopts the opinion, not only that there exists a subterranean abyss of Digitized by VjjOOQIC HUTCHIHjBQNIANISM. 117 waters, but a subterranean metropolis of animals, where the huge leviathiians, the gigantic saurians, dug out of the rocks by the geologist, still survive ; and this he endeavors to prove from the Bible. For this purpose he quotes the passage in Psalms, though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons^ and covered us with the shadow of death. His ex- position of this... text is much in the style of that already given from Catcott. Following that writer and Hutchinson, he en- deavors to show, by a still more fanciful interpretation, that the phrase '^ windows of heaven,'^ in Grenesis, means cracks and volcanic rents in the earth, through which air and water rushed inwardly and outwardly with such violence as to tear the crust to pieces. This was the effect of the increasing waters of the deluge ; the brmging together of these commi- nuted particles, so as to form the present strata, was the work of the subsiding waters.
