Your query says: "update _all_ data rows for this contact, setting one of
the fields to "John" and another to "Abraham".  Data rows include phone
numbers, emails, photos, you-name-it.  What you need to do is find a
specific data row you want to update and then use its _id in the selection
(or, more commonly, in the URI itself).
