Oh, and while Moses was gone, because they were so unnerved from their last encounter with G-d, they thought he'd been killed during his visit on the mountain top, so they thought they were alone and abandoned and THAT’s when they returned to the gods of Egypt and forced poor Aaron to make the golden calf.

Kinda explains Abe Foxman, doesn't it?

Even then, they weren't returning to the gods of Egypt, just to the traditions of Egypt. After making the calf, Aaron declared the next day to be "a Feast to the LORD." It was trying to make an idol of the Holy One not abandoning the Holy One which brought judgment.

Shalom.
