The correct (or rather the incorrect) answer is B. all three are polytheistic religions. This is not true - a polytheistic religion is one where people believe in many gods within one religion - for example, old Norse religion was polytheistic because they believed in Odin, and Thor, and Loki, etc. These three religions are all monotheistic - in Christianity, they believe in God, in Judaism in Jehova, and in Islam in Allah.
