I'm torn here. I'm constantly doing favors for a friend of mine (like driving them places, getting up extra early to drive them, etc.) , but this person never even gives a simple "thank you". Is this me overreacting or is it rude not to give a simple thank you?

..thanks

There's a great (kind of sad) scene in Woody Allen's film, "Broadway Danny Rose", in which he has all his guests to Thanksgiving dinner in his tiny apartment and serves frozen TV dinners. Would anyone here ever do that, say if they didn't want to, or couldn't cook a big feast? (Allen's character is broke, too). I'd like to try it sometime, as a lark...

I was just reading another question and answer when I saw this idea. I have also seen it before, it's kind of like, if some people CAN get away with victimizing others, then they will...

What kind of person sees life like this? Have humans become this predatory in the 21st century?

Hinduism started with the Indus Valley Civilisation which flowered around 2600–1900 BC
Aum (or Om, ॐ) is the sacred symbol that represents God (Brahman). It is prefixed and sometimes suffixed to all Vedic mantras and prayers. It is often said to represent God in the three aspects of Vishnu (A), Shiva (U) and Brahmā (M). As the divine primordial vibration, it represents the one ultimate reality, underlying and encompassing all of nature and all of existence. The written syllable serves as a deeply significant and distinctly recognizable symbol for Hindu dharma.

Please see this webpage if you are not familiar with the Aum sign.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Aum.svg

In 339 BC the city of Byzantium, (later known as Constantinople and then Istanbul), won a decisive battle under a brilliant waxing moon which they attributated to their patron Goddess Artemis whose symbol was the crescent moon. In honor of Artemis the citizens adopted the crescent moon as their symbol, but later became associated with Islam in general.
.
This is clearly shown at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_and_crescent

Since the Aum sign originated much earlier (2600–1900 BC) and the ‘star and crescent’ became popular only after 339 BC, is it at all possible that it could have come from the Hindu Aum?

The Jews, Christians and Muslims all originated about the same time in the same place, but the people who promoted the religions were from differing tribes so it would stand to reason that they would have different prophets. Since we're so much futher advanced today then we were 2000 years ago, seems logical to do a side by side comparison and just pick the religion that offers the most in the afterlife (since that's where it really counts anyway). Right?
