Jesus was a Unicorn
The early bible was mistranslated originally. In the real version, Jesus was regularly compared to an ox. But, in the King James version, Jesus was compared to a unicorn. This became a common trend in artist communities back in the Victorian era.
All In Jest
Jesters were actually allowed to say whatever they wanted to the royal family. They were the only person in the entire kingdom, including the king's aids and family members, that was allowed to openly mock the king without repercussions. Jesters didn't just make kings laugh, they helped kings humble themselves and offered political advice when the going got tough.
