"The ONLY person in this passage who shows any compassion or humanity is the compassionate rich man who ... pleads for compassion toward others and begs nothing for his own comfort!"

Surely you understand that even the most wicked of men will love their own family. What the evil rich man did, was to despise his neighbor instead of loving him. He gets little if any credit for being concerned about his own. On the other hand, God says:
"This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God.""
