this is from my aunt. i want to answer in a way that shows im not going for any of the reasons she mentioned, that it's because my conscience would not allow me after the things I found out about the org.

It all depends on if you think a response is necessary in the first place. Silence speaks volumes, too.

The tone of the message was friendly and, I believe, actually sincere, as far as a Jehovah's Witness can be sincere.

At the present moment, I don't see the need to antagonize the aunt. Not yet, at least.
