Answer/Explanation:

[1] How are the monotheistic religions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam) similar?

The three religions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam readily fit the definition of monotheism, which is to worship one god while denying the existence of other gods.There are notable similarities in notions of sacrifice, good works, hospitality, peace, justice, pilgrimage, an afterlife and loving God with all one's heart and soul.

[2] How are the monotheistic religions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam) different?

Christianity believes in the Trinity where there are 3 parts to God, where Islam and Judaism believe that there is only one god. Judaism puts more emphasis on laws and following them completely than Christianity which is talks more of love and acceptance.

[3] Do you think the three monotheistic religions Judaism, Christianity and Islam) are more similar than different CR more different than similar?

Maybe more different than similar..

Christianity and Islam accepts Jesus as the messiah. Judaism does not.

Christianity believes in a Trinity. Judaism and Islam disagree.Christianity believes Jesus was crucified. Islam does not.Judaism and Islam have dietary laws. Christianity does not.Islam teaches that the prophets were sinless alongside Muhammad. Christianity and Judaism does not.Islam prohibits casual discussions between men and women. Christianity and Judaism does not.Islam does not allow music with instruments. This is not the case for Christianity and Judaism.Islam teaches about neutral, good, and bad jinn—creations alongside humans. This is not a concept in Judaism and Christianity.Judaism and Islam have regulations set for a theocracy. Christianity does not as it is waiting for the theocracy directly instituted by Jesus Christ. Etc...

While there are similarities, there are considerable differences as well, enough to make it more remarkably distinguished rather than similar.
