I think selfishness is a pretty normal response here. If I was in that situation (and this is coming from someone who is on the spectrum) I would put him in a home. From what you have described I doubt I would even want to see them again, given how much pain your brother has caused you all. Not saying you shouldn't see him, just that I wouldn't.
Fuck religion or any other justifications your relatives have for thinking you should throw your life away just to look after someone like this. You aren't qualified for looking after him anyway by the sounds of it, he needs specialised full on care.
I think selfishness is often a good thing, in this case you would be foolish not to be selfish. Build your life and achieve your goals.
I won't take care of my autistic brother when my parents die, IIN?
