What reading level is The Christian Faith Under Modern Searchlights book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If so, we must think of God as altogether such a one as we are, rather than as the source and ground of being and the life and light of men. Such a deity is rather to be identified with the stream of life than with the Ultimate lying behind both life and matter. The Divine Artist, so conceived, would lack the clear- ness of human prevision of ends, and would be of a relatively lower order of endowment. The striving of the vital impulse without foresight of an end is of an infra-human rather tha...n a super- human kind ; for even a " complete and perfect humanity," Bergson says, " would be that in which these two forms of conscious activity [intuition and intelligence] attain their full de- velopment." 13 A recent critic has said that while Bergson has removed the mechanical obstacles to liberty he has not discovered the spiritual conditions req- uisite for it, and that " he has, most uninten- tionally, brought us back, in this anti-Finalism, to that Naturalism which he has so successfully resisted when it masqueraded as a sheer Mech- anism." M There can be no doubt that the spirit of his philosophy is one of progress, and that the tendency of his thought is spiritualistic ; his Han vital is an klan en avant, and his God (if one be admitted in his system) is a God of hope.
