Human Nature

[Angrboda]

You could be right of course, although I disagree.  People who are well-enough educated are on their guard against common misperceptions, misinformation, and fallacies in thinking -- to which our common human nature makes us prone.  Many atheists posting in this forum are good examples of this standard.  It's like the difference between those who are vaccinated and those who aren't.

Hardly. People who are educated are simply better at rationalizing bullshit they believe in. One easily can be educated and maybe even expert in some subject and buy into conspiracies outside of relevant field of experience. Education does not guarantee wisdom and might even stump it if is arranged badly enough.

Perhaps, but I'd rather an informed voter who ratiocinates upon the issues than an uninformed one who votes based upon extraneous factors.
