You seem to have a problem with reading comprehension. Muslims do respect Jesus and his mother, Mary.Muslims worship the same God that Christians worship. They have great respect for Jesus and his mother, Mary.And the Bible says that Jonah spent days in the belly of a whale, and that Eve talked to a snake.The following passage is from the Quran, sura 27.
If you read it you will see that it says King Solomon could understand birds and ants, they talked and he heard them. This would seem to be a nail in the coffin of the Quran as it is obvious nonsense.
27.16 And Solomon was David's heir. He said: "O ye people! We have been taught
the speech of birds, and on us has been bestowed (a little) of all things: this is indeed
Grace manifest (from God.)"
27.17 And before Solomon were marshalled his hosts,- of Jinns and men and birds,
and they were all kept in order and ranks.
27.18 At length, when they came to a (lowly) valley of ants, one of the ants said:
"O ye ants, get into your habitations, lest Solomon and his hosts crush you (under
foot) without knowing it."
27.19 So he smiled, amused at her speech; and he said: "O my Lord! so order me
that I may be grateful for Thy favours, which thou hast bestowed on me and on my
parents, and that I may work the righteousness that will please Thee: And admit me,
by Thy Grace, to the ranks of Thy righteous Servants."
27.20 And he took a muster of the Birds; and he said: "Why is it I see not the
Hoopoe? Or is he among the absentees?
27.21 "I will certainly punish him with a severe penalty, or execute him, unless he
bring me a clear reason (for absence)."
27.22 But the Hoopoe tarried not far: he (came up and) said: "I have compassed
(territory) which thou hast not compassed, and I have come to thee from Saba with
tidings true.
Yes, and the Quran repeats those bible myths as being the words of God.
No, they think Jesus was just another messenger whereas Christians think he was part of the trinity.
Incidentally the story of Adam and eve in the Quran is typically vague and it does not actually mention the snake.
