What reading level is Theological Essays of the Late Benjamin Jowett book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Does not the image tend to make the spiritual creation an accident of the material ? For although it is possible, as Bishop Butler has shown, to apply the argument from final causes, as a figure of speech, to the habits and feelings, this adaptation is un- natural, and open even to greater objections than its application to the physical world. For how can we distinguish true final causes from false ones ? how can we avoid confusing what ought to be with what is — the fact with the law ?
(Q If w...e look to the origin of the notion of a final cause, we shall feel still further indisposed to make it the category under which we sum up the working of the Divine Being in creation. As Aristotle, who probably first made a philosophical use of the term, says, it is transferred from mind to matter ; in other words, it clothes facts in our ideas. Lord Bacon offers another warning against the employment of final causes in the service of religion : ' they are like the vestals consecrated to God, and are barren.
