I have to wonder where Justin Martyr (or those before him) came up with the word or even concept of the word 'transmutation' back in the 2nd Century...
Origin of TRANSMUTATION Middle English transmutacioun, from Anglo-French or Latin; Anglo-French transmutacion, from Latin transmutation-, transmutatio, from transmutare
First Known Use: 14th century
I wonder what Justin Martyr really said, or if he said anything at all...
Well, the author of the article thought he had something to say when he was selectively snipping in support of his own position.
But, there is always the option of stopping up ones ears and declaring, "I cant's hear you."
