I interpret the reason for "we" as because of the first word "many."
But you bring up an interesting point, because the culmination of the passage is "I never knew you."
I've always interpreted the passage as individuals saying what they did in His Name and Him saying He never knew them. However, I could see it as individuals speaking about what a group did and Jesus saying I never knew YOU.

Yeah I had basically heard it used as a stick to justify bashing other groups that may do some things but arent fully in "truth".
I know Im all over the place with comments at times but thats kinda how my mind processes stuff...its kinda difficult to turn off...occasionally though Ill get traction on a out of the box kinda idea that seems to have some merit.
