Invoking the name of Amen...without Jesus??? At the Presidential Inauguration
Question: How come the Prayer was'nt retook in the name of Jesus if Barrack Obama, andThe Right Reverend, Gene Robinson of the Diocese of New Hampshire in the Episcopal Church are both Christian? 
.."The hold which the priesthood of Amen-Ra of Thebes had upon the Nubians was very great, for the troublesome times which followed after the collapse of their power as priest-kings of Egypt, the remnant of the great brotherhood made its way to Napata, and settling down there made plans and schemes for the restoration of their rule in Egypt ; fortunately for Egypt their designs were introduced by the Egyptians under the XVIIIth Dynasty, a fact which is proven by the testimony of the Tell el-Amarna tablets. Thus in a letter from the inhabitants of the city of Tunep, to the king of Egypt {i.e., Amen-hetep III. or son Amen-hetep IV.} the writers remind him that the gods worshipped in the city of Tunep are the same as those of Egypt, and that the form of the worship is the same."

..."the hymn to Ra precedes that to Amen-Ra. The text reads :-- "Homage to thee, "O Amen-Ra, who dost rest upon MA'AT ; as thou passest over the "heavens every face seeth thee. Thou dost wax great as thy "majesty doth advance, and thy rays {shine} upon all faces. "Thou art unknown, and no tongue hath power to declare thy "similitude : only thou thyself {canst do this}.
Thou art One, "even as is he that bringeth the tena basket Men praise thee in "thy name, and swear by thee, for thou art lord over them.

"Thou dost past over and dost travel through untold spaces "{requiring} millions and hundreds of thousands of years {to pass over} ; thou passest through them in peace, and thou steerest {thy way across the watery abyss to the place which thou lovest ; "this thou doest in one little moment of time, and then thou dost "sink down and dost make an end of the hours."
