BBC Radio 4 reference to 607 Babylonian conquest?
by 88JM inwas listening to bbc radio 4 late sunday night, and in a programme about migration, they referenced the "babylonian conquest of jerusalem in 607 b.c.
" which caught my attention.. did they not mean 587 b.c., or did i understand it wrong?.
the link to the programme is below - sorry if you're not in the u.k. as you probably won't be able to listen to bbc programmes.

Cofty, dead right. I think Voltaire (or his translator) had it "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it". It is all about freedom of speech.
The irony is that the law and the freedoms enshrined in it defend the right to strangle people's freedom of speech and thought.

NeonMadman of course you are right, the JWs are excercising their freedoms absolutely precious in our country. The freedom to think and say what you think is fundamental in a free society. Men have paid for that freedom with their lives.
Perhaps this columnist expressed her disquiet because she sensed the ugly barbed hook behind the bait that means that tose who take that tasty morsel and swallow it will have to give up those hard won freedoms, that pecious and priceles ability to express what you think without fear or favour.
I don't think she was objecting to the expresion of their faith, she was expressing a feeling of as I said ealier, disquiet.

They cant ride them anywhere! Why take a bike to watch a bike race? You dont take a ball to watch a football match! Muppets..
I went to watch Le Grande Depart today. A brilliant occasion. Just to explain the above, parking is often miles from the route so people take their bikes and ride in. Cyclists can use the roads that are part of the course until just before the pelaton arrives. So probably not muppets at all.

Fabulous final, Federa is such a cool dude. I am glad that the final was one and lost by a sporting gentleman. Incidently, what a fabulous day for sport in Britain.

Birthdays
by Laika ini had my first real birthday party yesterday.
call me an irredeemable pagan, but i was massively excited about this, the whole thing was very special, i got a little emotional and i think my friends must have found it a little strange but it was just nice to be creature worshipped.
when i was a child my parents always used to tell people i didn't miss out by not celebrating my birthday but i did miss out.

Good for you Laika, go for it. I have missed 66 birthdays. I still don't know what it is like to have one.
