The Gemara[4] rules that if someone is offered the ultimatum to violate one of the prohibitions in the Torah or be killed, that person has the duty to violate that law and save his life. This rule applies to all the prohibitions in the Torah with three exceptions. The three exceptions are:

  1. The prohibitions of idol worship,
  2. Illicit sexual relations and
  3. Murder.

This is much like Mark Chapter 3, so you should save your ass(Donkey) and don't feel guilty.
