Some say that religion is crucial for providing us with a moral framework, for giving clear strong moral guidance. Without religion, some say, people might lose their sense of morality altogether. But those who argue this ought to consider the Ancient Greeks. The Greeks pondered obsessively the question of what makes a good life and how to live well. In fact the word ‘ethics’ comes from them. And although they had their own set of gods, those gods were hardly moral role models (Zeus himself was a serial adulterer). Moreover, there was nothing by way of an agreed religious text from which to obtain their moral rules. There was even an atheist movement in Ancient Greece. The Greeks alone are proof that if we are to lose our faith in God, this does not mean we must also lose our faith in morality.

очень хорошо вариант С подходит(он и правильный по ответу), но также мне кажется что вариант Е тоже не плохой, ведь по сути в аргументе говорится, что: Moreover, there was nothing by way of an agreed religious text from which to obtain their moral rules, а вариант Е говорит что верующим трудно разработать единую интерпретацию, что означает, что греки могли быть верующими, но каждый по своему интерпретировал ее
