What reading level is The Pleasures of Sin book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Eddy usually defines substance as being truth. If so, sub- stance must include matter, because whatever it is, God created it, hence it is true and good. This would not apply if matter consists only of evil thoughts, as such thoughts originate from a lie, and are not of God's creation. However, we are here assuming that the term "matter" refers to the things we perceive by the mortal, or five senses, 77 THE PLEASURES OF SIN.
all of which originated, not from a lie, but from God's law, which is ...truth, and they are all subject to that law. And as to power, this is more specific. Mrs. Eddy claims that all matter is void of power save that given it by man's belief in the power of matter. Here again Mrs. Eddy is trifling with natural law. Matter has no power except that given it by God, its creator. Man has no ability or capacity to impart power to anything which we are terming matter (for want of a better name), and yet under the operation of God's law all matter has more or less power. For example, oil and grease have power to lubricate and prevent wear on the bearings of a machine, while sand and grit have power to cut the same parts to ruin, and man does not bestow this power.
