it is impolite.
now, could you do us all a favour and read the replies to your post in the 607 thread? there were a lot of questions raised by your comment and i think it would be a good witness if you would at least attempt to answer them. two very important ones are:
who are the "celebrated WT scholars?" what are they celebrated for and who celebrates them?
what "secular evidence" is there to prove the 607 date?

P.S. when did JW's started celebrating ANYTHING, let alone humans?
This is Scholar here
who are the "celebrated WT scholars?" Freddie
what are they celebrated for making the NWT available - a truly sholarly translation
and who celebrates them? Most JWs without realizing it because they worship the organization not christ or Jehovah and it was the organization that gave us 607BCE and the scholalry NWT
what "secular evidence" is there to prove the 607 date? Well this is well documented (blah, blah, blah, ) and so you get 537BCE and then you count backwards 70 years and you get 607 BCE- SO there you go - scholarly JWs are right again
P.S. when did JW's started celebrating ANYTHING, let alone humans? Can I plead the 5th on this?
Scholar JW (BA, MA Studies in Religion) PhD in Hebrew and Aramaic and kicking Leolaias butt
Scholar JW again in disguise
Oh and I forgot to add - that CO Jonsson guy, is not a true scholar and is wrong, wrong, wrong, and his research is not worth squat
Scholar JW MA Studies in Religion
are scholar and dfed the same person? oh, never mind, that's right, the borg and one collective mind controls all. silly me.
Scholar is a pretend jw....a poser. Only here to help others play a game.
Seymour Butts:
Scholar would have to be as you say - i.e with his tongue driven deeply into the side of his cheek as he writes his claims about WTS "celebrated scholars."
Surely!
You really ought to set scholar achievable goals. To expect scholar to post and stay is to expect a complete personality change and that expectation is unreasonable.
He won`t show up, he never does when he is confronted.
I love that picture in your avatar, SeymoreButts (oh, I like your films too ). It`s the picture form the cover of the first Down-album, right?

You ask two questions:
1. Who are the celebrated WT scholars?
Answer: Their identity must remain a secret and their identity is unimportant so that their scholarship is a praise to Jehovah God.
2. Evidence for 607?
The calcuable date of 607 for the Fall of Jerusalem is based upon three direct lines of evidence each of which has biblical and secular testimony:
1. The pivotal date for the Fall of Babylon in 539 BCE
2. The Return of the Exiles in 537 by means of the decree of Cyrus
3. The period of seventy years of exile-desolation-servitude
= The Fall of Jerusalem in 607 BCE
For each of these stages there are many scriptures and secular records which confirm the above including the climax in 607 BCE

How does that tie in with the way you've signed off your posts for as long as I can remember?
