The French philosopher/mathematician, Auguste Comte (1798-1857)
devoted his entire intellectual life to perfecting plans for a WORld
Management System (WORMS) , He believed human activities should be
controlled by an intellectual elite whom he called 'social
scientists.'

In the early Nineteenth Century two of the most important influences
on human behavior were science and religion. If the WORld Management
System could gain control in these two areas, Comte reasoned, it could
establish a non-free society with a permanent world government that
could never be overcome. He wrote and lectured about his plans and
attracted a following of many who considered themselves to be among
the intellectual elite.
