I'm with darp. Although disgust is taking it a bit too far. Its wrong for anyone to try and heap condemnation on others. But it is ok for your fellow christians to try and help you come to a place of repentance and change. Big B you say you're unashamedly evangelical christian? Have you talked to your pastor about your indifference to the poor? I too appreciate the honesty you have conveyed in your post. You are by no means unique though. And you reinforce what many non christians percieve the evangelical community to be.
