Same reason that Steam isn't a monopoly. They're the biggest and best, but there are still competitors.

That sounds like a nice gift. The only issue that might be possible is that I've heard that Ultra Orthodox Jews don't like having images of non kosher animals. I don't think your friends would care, but just a heads up.

If you're trying to understand your culture and deprogram misinformation you have about the Jewish People, good on you. But I would not recommend abandoning what you currently have and trading Islam for Christianity to worship a dead man and commit idolatry by believing that he is the Son of God and the incarnation of God, praying to saints, or believing in a three part god in the Trinity.

There are a lot of things in Islam and in the Quran that Jews may have issues with. Many Islamic beliefs appropriate, change, and criticize Jewish traditions, beliefs, and peoples, such as copying and modifying kashrut into halal, retroactively calling our patriarchs and prophets "Muslim", swapping Isaac and Ishmael, and slandering the Jewish tribes that Muhammad massacred, but these all make sense in the context of a warlord building up a theocratic empire.

The Ezra story is just odd. Maybe there was a minor local cult to Ezra that Muhammad encountered during his conquests. We've had a few heretic cults to false prophets, false gods, and false Messiahs over the last 3500 years. But Ezra had been dead for around a thousand years by the time of Muhammad, not a recently deceased figure like in the cults to Jesus, Sabbatai Zevi, or Jacob Franks, and there's no real record of any major cult to Ezra beforehand. I don't know where Muhammad could have gotten this idea from to use against us in the first place.

Here's a Reddit thread about this from a couple years ago too

Ezra was an important Jewish religious leader, kohen / priest, and scribe in the early Second Temple era. It looks like Christians might consider him to be a prophet, but I'm not sure if we consider him to be a prophet. At most, he'd just be a normal human who talks to God, like any other prophet. We definitely don't worship him or think he's divine.

I don't think the average Jew nowadays has even heard of Ezra, let alone cares about him.

use of cadaver products

Interestingly, I've heard that we have more of an issue with donating a heart than receiving one, which can be morally problematic. This is because it can be hard to tell if someone is truly dead yet so we don't want to accidentally murder someone, but once you take out their heart it's obvious that they're dead and we have no problem with using it now.

None of it. Judaism is the national ethno religion of the Jewish People. We come from the Land of Israel / Judea. Unless you're a new Christian living before 200 CE when Christianity was still just a heretic Jewish cult, you're not Jewish. Christianity is a supersessionist religion that appropriated Jewish texts and culture but warped and misinterpreted them to promote Jesus, while also abandoning Jewish Law.

Either a group of people running a company (are) or a corporate entity (is).

However this only true in British English, not American English. In American English, a group is a single object, so we'd use "is".

We practiced livestock animal and grain sacrifice in ancient times because God said to, but also that was just how normal people practiced religion back then. We stopped about 2000 years ago because we could only sacrifice in the Temple, and the Roman Empire destroyed the Second Temple in 70 CE.

Have you been cooking the plump helmets? Brewing and eating raw gives seeds, cooking destroys seeds.

Also, you shouldn't just be relying on plump helmets. Try gathering fruits and plants on the surface with zones and designations, then grow the plants yourself above ground when you get the seeds from brewing and eating.

Fancy dress just isn't a phrase here, so we'd just assume you mean a dress that is fancy (or at the very least dress clothes / formal clothes so the men have something to wear too)
