Answer 2

Well, both c and d are technically correct. God (I don't believe in Yahweh) commanded Abraham to destroy the idols on the day of their celebration when they will be preoccupied. He destroyed all the small statues and left the biggest one. When the people came and found their idols destroyed they blamed Abraham. e theorized the idols fought over who will get the largest offering, and in turn, destroyed one another. One of the idol-worshippers argued that they are only stone and that they cannot know nor care who gets what. So prophet Abraham said, "you deny their knowledge yet you worship them. Anyways answer c. is correct because it is true they were polythetic people before the religion of Abraham. Answer choice d is correct also. They did not toss away the religion they inherited from their forefathers because Abraham said so.
