What reading level is The Social Function of Religious Belief By William Wilson Elwang book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Very early in his career primitive man must have learned that it was better that all the members of a group should be moderately well fed, for exam- ple, than that a- few greedy individuals should appropriate the greater portion of the food supply while others lacked. This will be grievous heresy to those sociologists who place the origin of re- ligion at some stage even later in man's development than the ap- pearance of "notions of a common territory, of a common inter- est and defence, of a ...common leadership and allegiance, and of a common culture. " But it is evident that, long before such dis- tinct social integration had been reached as is implied by the possession of territory, leadership, culture, and other interests in common, there must have been developed some means of social control persistent and powerful enough under all conditions to curb the few for the benefit of the many. Nothing known to his- tory has been able to tame the "bete humaine, " to curb man's^ego- istic_mterest_like religious considerations.
