What reading level is The Religion of the Primitives book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
ISTo where in Bantu Africa is God, properly speaking, blas- phemed.^^ At times they find fault with him, they think him indifferent or severe, they call him bad, as on the occasion of a drought, a misfortune, a public calamity, or a death. But they have no idea of addressing God with words of contempt or insult. What can man do in the presence of God except be silent and wait?
One day at Bagamoyo I was present at the departure of a European, an agent at Zanzibar for a Hamburg house ; he was goi...ng into the interior to look for ivory at Tabira. The cara- van, composed of l^yamwezis, was ready to leave. The chief of the porters uttered an invocation: "May God be favorable to us!" "God, " replied the European, who no doubt wished to pose in a swaggering way and to magnify himself in the eyes of his men, "we have no need of him. My God is my money and my gun. " The porters looked at him, put down their burdens, and be- gan to withdraw. The European (who was of Jewish extrac- tion) asked me to intercede.
