Erev Shabbat Shalom! Let's not forget why we do this, brethren!
For this reason He is the mediator of a new covenant, so that, since a death has taken place for the redemption of the transgressions that were committed under the first covenant, those who have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.
(Heb 9:15)
And you shall not bring an abominable thing into your house and become devoted to destruction like it. You shall utterly detest and abhor it, for it is devoted to destruction.
Deuteronomy 7:26 ESV
The abominable character of idols is contagious. Knowingly accepting them into your house will make you abominable in God’s eyes also.

But the LORD your God will give them over to you and throw them into great confusion, until they are destroyed.
Deuteronomy 7:23 ESV
Satan may be the author of confusion, but God will freely use it as an effective tool in His arsenal.
Confusion is a natural outcome of hating God. His commandments are guidelines for healthy, ordered life. If you reject him, you will also reject his commandments and thereby sow confusion and sickness into your own life.
