What reading level is George Ide Chace a Memorial book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Why not suppose, it is said, the material atoms to be self -existent, and by interactions dependent upon their inherent energies to have organized the universe ? Why suppose an eternal, self -existent Being, who has created and endowed these atoms, and assigned to each its place and work? Is not the first the simpler hy- pothesis ? Does it not involve less that is incomprehensible and unimaginable ? Does it not explain equally well the phenom- ena? Is it not wholly relieved of the moral difficu...lties with which theism has always been pressed ? Are we not therefore bound in reason to prefer it ?
This view of nature, which lies at the bottom of so much of the unbelief of our times, may assume either a materialistic or pantheistic phase, according to the nature attributed to the primary constituents of being. I shall not enter upon an exam- ination of it at the present time, but shall make it the special subject of my next lecture. I will only say now, that the hy- pothesis, even in its lowest and materialistic form, if it were philosophically admissible, which I believe it is not, and if it were compatible with observed phenomena and the received doc- trines of science, which I hope to show it is not, would by no means preclude the supposition of a mighty intelligence pervad- ing every part of the universe — an intelligence not preceding and determining the organization of the universe, but developed through that organization.
