Voodoo, First Amendment and suburban zoning issues: Euless offers settlement in Santeria case But priest says he'll reject it because ban on goat sacrifice would stay 11:41 PM CDT on Tuesday, March 20, 2007 By MICHAEL GRABELL / The Dallas Morning News mgrabell@dallasnews.com A Santeria priest who is suing Euless over his religious practice of animal sacrifice would be allowed to kill chickens and hold small weekly gatherings at his home under a settlement offered by city attorneys. But the proposal would continue to prohibit the sacrifice of goats – a practice that Jose Merced says is as essential to Santeria as communion is to Catholics. And it would limit the gatherings to 25 people. Mr. Merced said he will reject the city's offer as a restriction on his religious freedom. "You cannot do initiations without an animal with four legs.
