People worshiped a golden calf once despite being told by far better and more living prophets to not worship random golden things some guy forged all their jewelry into. Said better prophets, if we believe this story, were even so disgusted that they ranted a bit while also throwing some stone slabs with laws onto the ground, breaking them, and then having to climb to the top of a mountain all over again to get/make a new pair of stone slabs.

And according to the text that this is from, these ignorants did so despite literally seeing said better prophet part a freaking sea with the power of God.

So yeah. The way to make sense of this is to say that humanity is incredibly stupid, even IF the text in question were infalable .

Not that people actually read the thing.
