What reading level is The Romance of Evolution And Its Relation to Religion book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Among their many deities was one they called Dyaus Pitar, literally the Sky Father; and when the original Aryan religion died out, the name was a part of the precious goods it distributed among the nations that were its descendants, becoming with the Greeks Zeus Pater, with the Romans Jupiter, meaning the same thing, with the Scan- dinavians Alfadir, — All-Father — and with the early Christians, "Our Father which art in heaven. " The name, therefore, is strictly a natural evolution, not somethi...ng which Chris- THE FATHERHOOD OF GOD 233 tianity gave to nature, but which nature gave to Christianity; and though under Christian nur- ture its contents of tenderness, care and spirit- uality have been immeasurably enlarged, it is only fair to argue that to the primitive Aryan mind it must have expressed, as the root out of which its after growth came, a real aspect of nature, otherwise it is a name which would never have been suggested.
The Dyaus Pitar, to be sure, has not been the world's only nature god.
