PS You are unqualified to access rather the ancients had any notion of plagiarism, in fact, no one is qualified to make that assumption. Egyptologists agree that we have very little to help us understand the ancient peoples. I like the fact that the moderators here make broad assumptions of wholecloth, and never offer a source for any of them. The bottom line is the current etymology is contemporary, and based entirely on assumption. Tell me why we have no etymology for Amun. This is absolutely silly beyond words because you have no ancient source for the etymology. You call this a 'fringe' theory, when in fact it is very wide spread, even among the believers and Jews. We all know the truth and if the believers wish to worship a pagan God, then Amen (so be it) to them. (pun fully intended) It's just absolutely silly and I laugh every time they call his name in ignorance.
