What reading level is Hopes for English Religion book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They seem able neither to live with one another nor with- out one another. No theory can set forth their relations exactly ; nor in practice can these be fixed, for varying conditions change the limits of both. Abstract logic applied to this notion leads to disasters ; since this ignores the shifting kaleidoscope of human affairs. Certainly the knot is not cut by saying that freedom means the right to do what we ought. Nothing could make more surely for tyranny. Even this leaves it open to make... individual choice decide, and call it conscience. So we race into anarchy. No society but must set some bounds to the acts of its members, or else it will not be a society. In a state of siege, normal safeguards of freedom will vanish. Otherwise the society will. No less is true if we start from the counter- principle. Unity is the end of human society. Those who reason mechanically from that notion 114 FREEDOM AND AUTHORITY 115 find an easy descent ; and the individual goes to ground. Unity is the plea of all tyrants or their henchmen, from Haman to Hollweg.
