abrahamism vs buddhism: is abrahamism elitist?

dear truth forum

by "Abrahamism", i refer to the three Semitic religions of Judaism, Xianism & Islam, founded by their mutually acknowledge patriarch, Abraham

1. what evidence is their that these three religions view all human beings as equally deserving of respect?

2. can we find teachings in these religions that view all beings as equally deserving?

3. or is there evidence these 3 religion nurture elitism?

4. do these 3 religions contain any equivalents to the Buddhist teachings below?

5. does Western arrogance, where it regards its culture as superior & its actions beyond reproach, possibly have a root in these religious values?

Whatever living beings there may be;
Whether they are weak or strong, omitting none,
The great or the mighty, medium, short or small,
The seen and the unseen,
Those living near and far away,
Those born and to-be-born —
May all beings be at ease!

Let none deceive another,
Or despise any being in any state.
Let none through anger or ill-will
Wish harm upon another.
Even as a mother protects with her life
Her child, her only child,
So with a boundless heart
Should one cherish all living beings;

Karaniya Metta Sutta

When a monk is fully enlightened, with his fermentations ended — one who has reached fulfillment, done the task, laid down the burden, attained the true goal, totally destroyed the fetter of becoming, and is released through right gnosis — the thought doesn't occur to him that:

'There is someone better than me,' or

'There is someone equal to me,' or

'There is someone worse than me.'

Not as higher, lower, nor equal
do they refer to themselves.
With [ego] birth ended,
the holy life fulfilled
they go about
totally freed from fetter
