God wants his people to live in a peaceful environment. That is why God told them to target three things in Ex. 34:13. They have to destroy, smash and cut these three things.
1. Altars ( destroy)
2. Idols (smash)
3. Pillars (cut)
Not every altar they see, not every idol they see, not every pillar they see. He did not tell them to remove them while they were in Egypt and while they were going through some pagan kingdoms. They have to remove those three things only in the promised land.
But sadly human beings usually think that compromising with these things help them live peaceful with neighbors.
