Higher Education does not Protect against Criminality and Idiocy
Why do highly educated people, whom most people assume should know better, very often show no moral difference from the lower educated people? True, their crimes are supported by more convoluted scheming but they are idiocies and crimes nevertheless. The answer is quite simple-Emotions. You see, being highly educated does not divest the human beings of the emotions of envy, lust, hatred, fear, sadness, sorrow, irrational admiration, sadistic predispositions, insecurity, deep disappointment. Such emotions serve as motivators and the highly educated used their reasoning abilities to justify their response to them.

Ask any racist college professor why he discriminates against minorities and he will utter an extensive explanation as to why he systematically subjects them to humiliation. If you would have asked Hitler's maniacal physician Mendele, why he experimented on the Jews the gypsies and others, during their imprisonment in the death concentration camps, his reasoning faculties would have provided you with what he considered fully justifiable. and urgent reasons why he was morally right in experimenting on them. Perhaps even dismissing the Hippocratic Oath he took promising not to harm his patients as being antiquated and impractical. Here is an example of how this highly educated man went about his gory business.
In short, the only thing that the so-called higher education can be expected guarantee is that data or knowledge will be compiled in the brain. However, how that knowledge is processed in that brain, and how it affects the person's behavior, is ultimately a whole different thing. For some it might provide an incentive towards decency. For others, it might make absolutely no difference or else be convoluted inm sucjh a way as to provide a rational for savagery.
