Yo Dawg Heard You

Perhaps, but it's also the name of an ancient Egyptian God as told in numerous archaeology books, including several from the Time Life Lost Civilization series. And it first appeared in the Bible shortly after Moses left Egypt with followers that would have been familiar with that God.

Interesting theory, however my etymology seems the more plausible one. I tend to lean more toward explanations that do not require tinfoil hats.

I still enjoy watching stuff like the Ancient Aliens television program, but I'm not buying what they're selling.

The assumption that "Amen" is an ancient Egyptian God requires no fringe beliefs it comes from traditional scholars.

There's enough evidence to raise doubts about official beliefs and open things up to viable theories at least until unsolved mysteries can be explained; however I try to be a rational skeptic, believe it or not, and require stronger evidence before it should be considered conclusive.

Ancient Aliens may make an incredible volume of blunders; but they don't ignore unsolved mysteries although we need rational skeptics to address the mysteries sincerely before real solutions can be found.

I also consider myself a rational skeptic, but when presented with crackpot theory A vs crackpot theory B, I'm going to go with Occam's Razor until presented with new or additional information.

And given the option between a transliteration of a word that has a similar meaning to it's modern contextual usage vs a sketchy connection to a vague homophone, I'll go with the former. Again, until new evidence is presented.

None of the theories are complete. not yet anyway.

False on all counts
