Some major problems with your statement here. Civics hasn't been removed from education. Evil people are not more intelligent. By definition, the fact they can't determine what is good makes them less intelligent.

In today's environment, it's hard for me to imagine how anyone that's not inherently evil could stand our educational process. This has to be by design.

I think you have some logic problems in your reading. I never said evil people are more intelligent, I said that the most evil people are also very intelligent. You can't make evil work on a large scale without being very intelligent. Of course there are murderers and psychopaths that are both evil and stupid, like Cannon Hinnant's murderer. But the worst are those like Soros or Gates who are truly geniuses and believe they are doing "good" while enriching themselves because their moral compass is totally out of alignment with the actual common good.

Being able to discern right from wrong is a sign of wisdom, not intelligence.

How would you differentiate wisdom from intelligence?
