Since the early Christians adopted the Jewish creator, ancient readers of authors like the Roman historian Tacitus assumed that the donkey-headed deity in the Jewish temple was also the Christian god.

>an account from the late 2nd century CE describes a former Jew in Carthage (or possibly Rome) displaying a placard of a being with donkey ears and a cloven hoof emerging from his toga, labeled: "ONOCOETES, GOD OF THE CHRISTIANS". The display of this spectacle reportedly inspired much laughter from the audience. The term Onocoetes (from the Greek onos, "donkey") may suggest that the Christian god was born from the union of a donkey and a woman, as the Romans associated the donkey with sexuality. A popular caricature, possibly known around the late 2nd or early 3rd century, shows an individual worshiping a crucified figure with a donkey's head. This image suggests the idea of "like father, like son": a donkey-headed father god begetting a donkey-headed son (Jesus).

>Minucius Felix In his dialogue Octavius (c. 250 CE), the opponent of Christianity, Caecilius, accuses Christians of worshiping a donkey's head. The Christian defender, Octavius, while denying the practice, culturally connects the accusation to the memory of Egypt, implicitly acknowledging the Seth-Yahweh tradition.
In summary, the Jewish deity was already the target of Egyptian polemics that associated it with Seth/Typhon, the donkey-headed god of chaos. When Christianity emerged, its adoption of the Jewish Creator allowed critics to easily transfer this derogatory donkey-god image to the Christian faith.
