Our great grandparents, grandparents, and parents have been brought up with it and our parents teach the sport to us.

... usually for increased food production. In selective breeding only animals with desirable characteristics are chosen for further breeding. Though these practices may have seemed sufficient in the past, they are actually hit and miss cases with little chance of success. Through Biotechnology, breeders choose specific genes. Breeders can also incorporate genes from an unrelated species, giving an animal or plant new features the previously wouldn’t be available.

A number of Comte's disciples refused, however, to accept this religious development of his philosophy, because it seemed to contradict the original positivist philosophy. Many of Comte's doctrines were later adapted and developed by the British social philosophers John Stuart Mill and Herbert Spencer and ...

... claims if the researcher loses his focus and his findings are useless to him, they may be very helpful to others doing research in the field. Finally, and most astonishing, he argues that Sociology cannot be “generalized,� sociology must take each individual in “society� and treat him as a separate entity. Then it must focus on the “objective� structures of society, such as the church and family, to see how the “individual� is molded.

But he was told by the oracle at Delphi that he should purge himself by becoming the servant of his cousin Eurystheus, king of Mycenae.
