Reno: "Few People Want to be Wicked"

I've mentioned R.R. Reno's series on Catholic Apologetics before and I continue to work my way through it.  It is really excellent and I've had to relisten to each episode a few times to really let it sink in.  In this audio snippet, he's talking about the pessimistic view our modern era has about man's capability to really know truth.  The "they" he refers to is non-Christians.  However, I think it also applies to those work against orthodoxy w/in the Church.  It doesn't necessarily come from an evil impulse, but nonetheless it goes wrong because they step outside the bounds of Christ and Church.  He also quotes Chesterton when he says that the modern vices are virtues gone mad.
