What reading level is The Secret of the East; Or, the Origin of the Christian Religion, And the Significance of Its Rise And Deline book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Church controlled the whole machinery of education, and the votaries of knowl- edge had to become priests or monks. Among the many 'millions who entered the monasteries in search of peace or in quest of the refectory, a few hundred came with higher aims, and their unselBsh love of truth drove them to a fierce rebellion against the power of her enemies. The Church that tried to digest this mixture of monachism and philosophy found that she had swallowed the prescription of Daniel. The font o...f her consecrated water had been vaunted as the fountain of truth. All other well-springs of knowledge had been stopped, and pilgrims whose thirst could not be stilled with sophisms had been admitted behind the scenes.
The revelations that dispelled the shadows of the Middle Ages did not come from Cordova or Bag- dad, but from the strongholds of the Christian hierarchy. Luther, Campanella, Eckardt, Charron, Roger Bacon, Lipsius, and Jordan Bruno were monks. Duns Scotus, Yanini, Abelard, and Wool- ston were theologians.
