Untrue. That story does not exist at all in the Torah, only in the Bereishi't Rabbah (a collection of Rabbinical interpretations and quotations from the third century AD, also, lol for text censors) and in various Muslim texts that occur after this point.

Again, as explained above, Jewish Pagainism existed constantly and still does, but usually not as an organized event. Being Jewish in no way at all prevents you from believing in or worshipping other gods besides G-d. :3
