by definition, a nerd is someone who is knowledgeable in a field that isn't sports. so yes, in order to be a nerd, you must actually be bright.

also, nerd is a positive term in the majority of society's current consciousness (just as planned) so being a nerd requires to to actually have a good set of morals.

someone who doesn't fit the second set of requirements is called an "asshole" and someone who doesn't fit the first set is not called a nerd.

being a nerd, does not automatically make one wise or moral,or even of necessity terribly bright. nerds come in all human personality type categories,just like everyone else.
