U.S. - A new source claims that Judas Iscariot was seen at a Jerusalem Popeyes shortly before betraying Christ for 30 pieces of silver.

The scholar, who identified himself as Dr. Cain Dathy, said that new textual analysis makes it clear that Judas spent some time enjoying a Popeyes chicken sandwich before deciding he would go forward with his plan to sell Christ out. 

"While the rest of the gang was eating Chick-fil-A, Judas said he was gonna head over across the parking lot to grab a Popeyes chicken sandwich," Dr. Dathy said in a press conference announcing the groundbreaking findings. "He told them it tasted just as good as Chick-fil-A and was a whole lot cheaper. He even said he liked their sauce better than Chick-fil-A sauce!"

Dathy and his team of researchers suspect that Satan may have entered Judas Iscariot as he bit into the Popeyes chicken.

"That's why you've got to make sure to eat at Chick-fil-A," he said. "All our---er, I mean, their---ingredients are checked for demonic possession from the farm to your table."
