More proof of Islam's superiority

In my meanderings in Paltalk, I have encountered some who like to tell me that they have "proof" or evidence that Islam is the one true religion. One gentleman went on a long rant about how all the animals knew that Islam was the "true" religion and praised Allah, showing how much better they are than Jews and Christians and other "kafirs". He then said that even the rocks themselves knew that Allah reigned supreme and that Islam was the true religion, and were therefore smarter than Christians and Jews. He even told me that turds worship Allah.

This is probably based on some passages in the Koran where the animals and rocks and trees talked to Mohammed. To complete his "proof", this character stated that the bible ordered all Jews and Christians to eat excrement. Ah yes, I see, clearly a very well known biblical passage that Jews and Christians follow!

For example, in the book of Ezekiel 4:12-13, it states that the Lord said: "And thou shalt eat it as barley cakes, and thou shalt bake it with dung that cometh out of man, in their sight. And the LORD said, Even thus shall the children of Israel eat their defiled bread among the Gentiles, whither I will drive them."

A passage in 2 Kings 18:27 says: "But Rabshakeh said unto them, Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men which sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you?"

The first of these is generally interpreted to refer to the use of dung as fuel. The second is a bit more sketchy, but certainly does not appear to refer to a "commandment" to eat excrement. In any case, the fact that there are over 30,000 varieties of Christianity alone, each with their own interpretation of the bible shows that some sort of blanket statement about what Jews and Christians are ordered to do, and all accept, is just plain silly...
