Justin was brought up a pagan; he explored many philosophies, such as Epicureanism, Stoicism, Pythagoreanism, Platonism - all of which he rejected because of their godless nature.

He wrote in criticism of heretics in his Apologies. The cynic Crescentius took revenge by denouncing him to the prefect of Rome who had Justin and his students decapitated. His relics are kept in both Rome and Valetta.
