1960 J. Macquarrie Scope of Demythologizing vii. 214 Some English writers on demythologizing..have adopted the habit of talking rather slickly of ‘demything’. Apart from the fact that this word is a more than usual inelegant barbarism, it also betrays a fundamental misunderstanding of Bultmann's intention. If ‘demything’ meant anything, it would mean, ‘the elimination of myth’... ‘Demythologizing’ means ‘the elimination of mythology’, and this is not the same as the elimination of myth.
1961 Times Lit. Suppl. 14 Apr. 236/3 All three books agree that some measure of demything (if a less barbaric rendering of the German than ‘demythologizing’ is permissible) of the world-view and other assumptions of New Testament writers is necessary.
