What reading level is Lectures On Scepticism Delivered in Park Street Church Boston And in the Seco book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If, to escape the dilemma, you say that no one mind in the series is self-existent and eternal — all had a beginning, and each is dependent on the other, this is only CHARACTER OF GOD. 143 to augment, at every step backward, the absur- dity of accumulating effects without a cause.
Suppose a chain should be let down from an unknown height, and I should ask one of these philosophers what it hangs upon. Would it answer to say, the lower link hangs on the next? But what does the second, the third, ...the tenth, the thousandth hang on? Each on the link above, — but what is the great staple, with something above it, which holds up the whole? There is none. The whole chain hangs on nothing. No single link of it could be sustained without a link above, but the intire chain hangs on nothing.
The intire universe, then, of dependencies, rises up around us, proclaiming with trumpet-tongue, that he who made us is divine. With shield of adamant, they turn aside sceptical cavils; and with sword and spear, drive us to the conclusion, that he who made all things is God.
