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.

They might not feel it's important enough to warrant a slot in the feedback programme, though that doesn't mean you won't get a response. If they are going to do a piece on the issue, they probably want to research it more and give an explanation why the error was made.
This weeks Feedback was mostly about people talking when eating on the radio

besty - probably half of those references are on here and other exJW sites! 587 is so widely accepted, it's hardly ever contested.
Island Man - it's difficult to see how they can justify saying 607 in the context they did. They were talking about the events that Psalm 137 references, i.e. exile. I don't think anyone could reasonably say there was any kind of "conquest" or "exile" in 607 B.C. from Jerusalem surely?
EDIT: Never mind Island Man!

Haha oh dear what have I done
Searcher - you could also put the audio as an audio track to a blank video file and upload it to youtube which can be viewed here. I'll have a go at that myself maybe...

Oh good - I'm glad to know it's not just me then!
That's what I thought Londo.
BBC Radio 4 feeback is indeed probably the best place to write to. The "Feedback" programme is on Fridays at 16:30 I think, and repeated on Sunday nights as well I believe.

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. The reference to "607 B.C." is about 21 minutes 20 seconds on, so if you listen from about 21 minutes onwards you will hear it:

I thought it was only JWs that think Jerusalem fell in 607 B.C.?

WT Study, Sunday 6th July 2014.
by skin init might be the way i think and see, but the first time i looked at the image on pg 27 of the april 15th watchtower i was trying to figure out how it applied to this study.
this is a darkened black and white image that appears in my edition of this magazine, (its colour online).
anyway, para 9 talks about a brother that had an issue with looking at online porn.

Why does the WTS always talk about men and boys masturbating; no masturbating sisters? No sisters viewing porn?
Can you imagine how elders would go about counselling a sister for that? If a sister ever did do the crazy thing of actually telling the elders about it, I would love to see how that conversation would go!

Similar to your thread Focus, I thought one UK ex-politician described it pretty well the other day. He said:
"Where there are children, paedophiles will be attracted. It isn't a coincidence that in the Catholic church, in the teaching profession and in children's television there are paedophiles. They are there because that's where there are children. And indeed, in a number of these environments, including television and the Catholic church - the first in the case of celebrity and the second case the need to avoid scandal - there was a pretty great certainty that they were not going to be exposed or prosecuted. So you have a lethal combination - you have a ready supply of children and you have a guarantee that people aren't going to be brought to justice. What is going to happen there? You are going to attract a lot of paedophiles."
