16833	Mill, John Stuart	Auguste Comte and Positivism			.txt	text/plain	53016	1525	45	These mental dispositions in M. Comte account for his not having found or sought a logical criterion of proof; but they are scarcely consistent with his inveterate hostility to the hypothesis of the luminiferous ether, which certainly gratifies our predilection for order and harmony, not to say our besoin d'idéalite, in no ordinary degree. M. Comte examines and criticises, for the most part justly, some of the principal efforts which have been made by individual thinkers for this purpose.	cache/16833.txt	txt/16833.txt
