What reading level is Thoughts On Religion book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
G. The duty of parentsto educate their children in what they _believe_ as distinguished fromwhat they _know_. This would be unjustifiable if faith were the same asopinion. But it is fully justifiable if a man not only knows that hebelieves (opinion) but believes that he knows (faith). Whether or notthe Christian differs from the 'natural man' in having a spiritual organof cognition, provided he honestly believes such is the case, it wouldbe immoral in him not to proceed in accordance with what ...he thusbelieves to be his knowledge. This obligation is recognized in educationin every other case. He is morally right even if mentally deluded.
Huxley, in _Lay Sermons_, says that faith has been proved a 'cardinalsin' by science. Now, this is true enough of credulity, superstition, &c. , and science has done no end of good in developing our ideas ofmethod, evidence, &c. But this is all on the side of intellect. 'Faith'is not touched by such facts or considerations. And what a terrible hellscience would have made of the world, if she had abolished the 'spiritof faith' even in human relations.
