I am a bit puzzled. I can reproduce the error even when commenting out the expressions mentioned. I can also reproduce the error when substituting parameters, as you suggest, in `org-read-date'. It looks like the problem comes from "diary-lib.el". For example, evaluating the following sexp (let ((entry "14:30 @<description>") (date '(6 22 2016))) (diary-remind '(and (diary-float t 3 -1) (not (or (diary-date 2016 6 29)))) '(-7) nil)) returns the very same error you're experiencing, even though Org is not involved at all.
