And how do you square that with the neuroscience that shows our ability to control our impulses and make proper decisions is dependent upon the structure of our frontal lobe?  Every one of us is just a brain injury away from being unable to properly moderate our behavior.  How is it fair for God to judge people on their decisions if he made it easier for some to control themselves than for others?

That will be taken into account as well. Like I said, it's about what's in our hearts. If someone who is legitimately insane, for example, blacks out and hurts someone, it doesn't necessarily mean they are bad people.

That sounds suspiciously like moral culpability has more to do with capability than arbitrary definitions of sin.
