If you lied about being an aetheist-then you've broken your oath..and should not be a member of the Boy Scouts.
Also-there's a vast difference between being sexually assaulted vs physically assaulted..yet you seem to believe they are the same..I can easily see that your lack of belief in God-could allow you to adopt such twisted thinking..further proof that you need to disassosicate yourself from the Scouts..I wouldn't want anyone like you around my son.

who says he lied?
The story clearly states he became an atheist in the ninth grade.
Assuming he joined the scouts before that (a pretty fair bet, I'd say) then he didn't lie when he joined.
When he became apostate, then he may have had difficulty with reciting his oath therafter .. but there's nothing to suggest he joined under false pretences.
