What reading level is Lectures On the Origin And Growth of Religion As Illustrated By the Native Relig book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
1 Amongst the higher classes, the ideas entertained on this same subject had become a little less naive. The Incas were supposed to be transported to the mansion of the Sun, their father, where they still lived together as his family. The Curacas or nobles would either follow them there, or would still live under the earth beneath the sceptre of the god of the dead, Supay, the Hades or Pluto of the Peruvian mythology. Do not identify this deity with a Satan or Ahriman of any kind. He was not a ...wicked, but rather a sinister god, the conception of whom could wake no joyous or even serene emotions. He was a voracious deity, of insatiable appetite. At Quito, at any rate before the conquest of the country by the Incas, a hundred children were sacrificed to him every year. There is no idea of positive suffer- ing inflicted on the wicked under his direction. But the subterranean abode is gloomy and dismal, like i Cf. Tschudi, Vol. II. Pp. 355-6, 397-8.
238 DOCTRINE OF IMMORTALITY.
the place of shades in the Odyssey.
