What reading level is Philosophy And Religion book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
How arewe to learn anything about the character of God? I imagine that at thepresent day few people will attempt to prove the goodness orbenevolence of God from an empirical examination of the facts of Natureor of History. There is, no doubt, much in History and in Nature tosuggest the idea of Benevolence, but there is much to suggest adirectly opposite conclusion. Few of us at the present day are likelyto be much impressed by the argument which Paley bases upon theexistence of the little appar...atus in the throat by which it isbenevolently arranged that, though constantly on the point of beingchoked by our food, we hardly ever are choked. I cannot help remindingyou of the characteristic passage: 'Consider a city-feast, ' heexclaims, 'what manducation, what deglutition, and yet not one Aldermanchoked in a century!' Such arguments look at the matter from the point{61} of view of the Alderman: the point of view of the turtle and theturkey is entirely forgotten. I would not for a moment speakdisrespectfully of the argument from design.
