What reading level is Some Outlines of the Religion of Experience; a book for Laymen And the Unchurched book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In his freedom from pedantry he puts to shame many of our educators, whose whole vitality is absorbed in a single specialism. Socrates is capable of such subtlety of intellectual construction and dis- crimination as himian thought has never surpassed.
Yet he is the beloved boon companion of the young men, who are able at once to revere and to chaff him. And which among the modem thinkers who strive to be impartial has ever rivalled the dispassionateness of one who (as we see in the Crito) would... not condescend to twist an argument even to save his life?
Addison, in one of his charming essays, uses the phrase, "the divine Socrates." ^ If this epithet is not to be an empty word, it must connote, as I have suggested, the power of creating spiritual Ufe in others. Such divinity can no more be denied to Socrates than to Jesus. To enter the presence of the immortal Athenian is to be made ashamed of all that is low and petty and self- centred. For he is not merely an example of unsur- passable himian grandeur, but also a living source of en- noblement to all who approach him.
