As both a Pagan and a Vegetarian I can appreciate this.

This is satire, I presume?

I think it is most likely satire, yes. Another article on the same site is "Opinion: I don't Need to Listen to Punk to be Punk":
I’m a really angry person, and my preferred way to show my angst is by making snide remarks at strangers and through fashion. And what’s a better representation of unbridled anger than the aesthetic style of punk?
I'm totally not making fun of the desire to not sacrifice animals, being vegetarian myself. There might be sources out there for what to do .

I mean that bowl of tofu is obviously photoshopped in so...

Although, that isn't the dumbest thing ever. Most spiritualist sacrifices are of something valuable and, in the olden times, game animals like goats would be up there in value... alongside gold, gems, produce, furs, and (occasionally) people. So tofu would not be out of the question.

So, it's VERY unintentionally plausible.

I feel silly for not realizing this was satire. 8F
