Comte searched for a biological way to fundament humans had a natural predisposition for being moral, his writings were influenced by phrenologist's work, which assumed humans would have certain moral characteristics based in their skull measures and features. These beliefs imply that biology will influence character and morality, until now some laws and juridical codes sustain somehow this influence that we can see in criminology and in Trait Theories.
