What reading level is The Validity of the Religious Experience a Preliminary Study in the Philosophy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But his at- titude toward them, the attitude of primitive religion, shows that his experience had reference to something which was not like his fellow men. It is true that at times he may have held this same attitude toward a fellow man, as shown by the tabu which often sur- rounded king and priest. At such times he regarded them as different from the rest of mankind; some- thing had entered or been born in them which was not the common lot of man. In this case too, he dif- ferentiated between ...his nature and the nature of the being he worshiped or feared. The very center of his attitude was that the priest-king, the tree or the stone, was different from himself. The source or object of his experience of these objects and of his relation to them is therefore, in his belief, to be found outside of ordinary human nature. The religious object is conceived as superhuman.
At times it has seemed that the result of our study of totemism would be to conclude that it was not re- ligion at all, if we define religion as worship.
