A friend and I were "debating" this yesterday, and I'm wondering what the correct pronunciation is.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
How do you pronounce Philemon?

I say phil (as in the name phil)-a (short a) moan..
But you say toe-may-toe... I say to-mah-toe. Let's call the whole thing off.

This is pretty funny
My friend says it like herev.
I say it like Miss Shelby, except the last part, I say "mon" like a Jamaican, not like "moan."

I've had the same debate with someone who works upstairs.
I say "fil-lah-mon"
Her Bible study leaders says it's pronounced "fil-lay-mon"
Personally, I'll stick to my pronunciation until someone in the church officially tells me otherwise.

Filet Mignon.
That's a good one.
Thank goodness I'm not a lector. I can just see myself now: "A reading from the book of Filet Mignon."

Just don't be a lector in Week 30 of Ordinary Time, Year II, and you won't have to worry about it.
That's funny.
There's also "A reading from the letter of St. Paul to the Romulans".
