Comte's Law of three stages:

2. In the theological stage, thoughts were guided by religious ideas and the belief that society was an expression of God's will.
3. In the metaphysical stage, society came to be seen in natural, not supernatural terms.
4. Finally the last stage is the positive stage, it is ushered in by the discoveries and achievements of Copernicus, Galileo and Newton. It encouraged the application of scientific techniques to the social world.
