What reading level is The Worlds Desire book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Whence shall their leaders come and what shall be their message? In a country of universal education and in a scientific age we natu- rally expect them to be educated men bringing the latest remedies of science to the solution of our problems and the settle- ment of our discontent.
But here precisely it is that the danger is imminent. The suppression of religious instruction was begun in the common schools, but has now spread to the colleges and the universities. As I have said, these instituti...ons of the higher learning were originally denominational seminaries 43 But Universities Now Are Godless.
for the education of the ministry. For a long time they kept their religious charac- ter, taught a definite religious creed, and maintained their own religious worship. But the time-spirit has been too strong for them. Great wealth soon made the univer- sities, as they say, non-sectarian. The col- leges, aping the universities, immediately fell into line. Such a development, indeed, was natural, and, though the intentions of the founders were not respected, there was nothing mean or dishonorable in the mo- tives for the change; but since the day Judas sold his Master for thirty pieces of silver there has been no more disgraceful exhibition of unprincipled greed than the action of those denominational colleges that have banished the faith of their fathers from the curriculum in order to share in the bloodstained money of Andrew Car- negie.
