I think that's a slippery slope. If it's a brain disorder, something because of a physical malady, then it would reduce the culpability, to the point that it probably couldn't be a mortal sin for anyone with the brain disorder. Then the Bible would be wrong for saying homosexuals can't go to heaven, because you don't go to hell for venial sins.
