    In this episode of Fascinating!, Rik from Planet Vulcan explores the concept of secularism as Earth’s most intelligent meme—a rare idea that just might help this planet’s diverse inhabitants peacefully coexist. Secularism, often misunderstood as a rival religion, is more like a cosmic DMZ, where everyone can practice their faith without insisting others join their club. But alas, the problem arises when true believers think their revelation is the only one, and things get messy when swords are drawn in defense of "truth."

    With his signature Vulcan wit, Rik traces the evolution of secularism, from ancient Greece and Rome to the philosophical revolutions of the Enlightenment, offering a crash course on how separating church and state became the key to liberty and justice for all. Whether you’re a fan of religious freedom or simply tired of the cosmic bickering, this episode will have you questioning why Earth hasn’t yet mastered this meme. Live long, prosper, and embrace secularism!
