    It’s an old testament sacrifice thing.

    Leviticus 17:7

    They must no longer offer any of their sacrifices to the goat idols[a] to whom they prostitute themselves.

    Edit: it appears in a few other places.

      he hasn’t read the bible and probably doesn’t talk to anyone who has. more likely a reference to “the goat” meaning “the greatest of all time”.

      Well yeah, but the goat idols were used in some kind of previous religion and are being forbidden in Leviticus, as can be seen from the quote. So it’s not exactly an old testament thing, it’s just mentioned in the old testament as something you shouldn’t use.
