(Worthy Satire) – In a divine twist worthy of the Book of Leviticus meets courtroom drama, a woman has been charged with animal abuse after allegedly smuggling a goat onto the Temple Mount for what she insists was a “spiritual promotion.”
According to police, the woman was caught attempting to usher the goat past security with a shawl over its head and a shofar in its mouth “to blend in with the religious atmosphere.” Witnesses say she told guards, “He’s not just a goat. He’s the chosen one.”
Under questioning, the woman maintained her innocence, stating:
“This wasn’t abuse—it was destiny. He wanted to go. He practically leapt into my purse. You should’ve seen the joy in his little eyes when I whispered ‘third temple.’”
Temple authorities said the goat appeared to be “under stress” and was found chewing on a leaflet titled ‘How to Be a Living Sacrifice: The Ultimate Guide.’ A veterinarian later confirmed the goat was in stable condition, though “confused and mildly traumatized by all the eschatology.”
The woman’s lawyer is reportedly preparing a defense rooted in religious liberty and “goat consent.” Animal rights activists, meanwhile, are calling for more safeguards against “ritual tourism.”
The goat has since been placed in protective custody and renamed “Azazel.”
