Hi Joelbear
I've wondered about this before. But I don't think there is any good news for you here, sorry. You may have to look down other avenues.

joelbear, first of all, i just wanted to say that i have enjoyed the positivity and kindness of your posts. i too was baptized at 14 and i don't think anyone can make a binding agreement for lifelong loyalty to any organization. when the elders came to me after years of seperation, i told them this, and my reasoning was flatly denied even though i never tried to take back my dedication to jehovah. they seem to view dedication to jehovah as inseperable to dedication to the organization.

I have an enormously strong aversion to lying
Joelbear,
So do I. I hate lying and being lied to. The way I see it, the WTS took to lying and deception long before I came along to be seduced by them. *I* did not lie at my baptism---they did.
Don't let it bother you, as the whole matter is null and void, kiddo.
hugs,
Annie
