    In this episode of Fascinating!, Rik from Planet Vulcan examines one of Earth’s most intriguing phenomena—religious conversion—through a lens you didn’t see coming: Marxism. Inspired by tales like Saul’s blinding light on the road to Damascus, Rik dives into how the radicalized vision of Marxists mirrors religious awakening. With Vulcan wit and dry humor, we explore how moments of revelation—from spiritual epiphanies to social justice “aha” moments—can transform worldviews faster than you can say "false consciousness."

    But it’s not just about the conversion. Rik draws curious parallels between religious and political movements, from the emotional rollercoaster of belief adoption to the communal bonds forged in the fires of dogma. Whether you're into divine intervention or class struggle, this episode offers a cerebral yet playful look at how humans seem wired for conversion—be it to gods or ideologies. Tune in for insights, stay for the wit.
