You think that people can think logically without being educated?

Sure, they can. There are many fields of study that don't contain education in logic or they teach a logic that is particular to the field, for example, doctors are taught clinical thinking, not critical thinking. To the extent that they think critically, they either came by it naturally or learned it somewhere else. Critical thinking is as much a function of context and temperament as education. That might be otherwise were we to make it a priority in education, but we haven't.

People of all education levels are subject to poor judgment. And bias.
