A Pope is a Pope is a Pope
The cardinals of the Roman Catholic Church will lock themselves into the Sistine Chapel in around 15 minutes and stay there until they've chosen a new pope.
When a candidate receives at least 77 votes, a two-thirds majority of cardinals, he'll be asked, "do you accept your canonical election as supreme pontiff?" If he replies "accepto," he becomes the pope and can immediately choose a new name.
As I understand the process, he can select anything -- Pope P. Diddy I, Pope Atrios I, and Pope Jurassic Park IV are not out of the question -- or simply keep his own first name. But for 15 centuries the new pope, like rappers, bloggers, and actors, has adopted a nom de pontiff.
In most cases, the name is chosen to give props to a past pope, as John Paul II did for John Paul I.
My money's on one of these six names:
- Benedict XVI
- Clement XV
- Innocent XIV
- Leo XIV
- Paul VII
- Pius XIII
I mean this literally. I registered all six of these as dot-com domain names earlier this month, which I feared was tacky -- to say nothing of soul-imperiling -- until I read about the vacant papal see stamp. Clearly I'm not the only baptized Catholic who gets geeked about this process.
I don't think there's any speculative potential in these domains, but I couldn't resist the chance to have some skin in the game. Someone else already has JohnPaulIII.Com and JohnXXIV.Com, but otherwise I put a chip down on every name of the past three centuries.
A Hungarian web site caught me doing this, accusing me of legöbb spekuláns a pápa.
I don't expect we'll get another John Paul -- the Italian saying "always follow a fat pope with a skinny pope" refers to cardinals' desire not to go too far in one direction. But I'm concerned about John.
The Irish betting site Paddy Power has Benedict as a 3-to-1 favorite, trailed by John Paul at 4-to-1, Pius at 6-to-1, and Peter at 8-to-1.
The last choice would lend itself to rapturous excitement among end-times believers -- there's a long belief that the last pope will call himself Peter II.
Update: A few news reports suggest that I might have popesquatted BenedictXVI.Com to sell it to pornographers. For the love of God, people, that's not going to happen. I will be running any plans I have for this domain by my own Catholic doctrinal enforcer, my never-miss-a-Sunday grandmother Rita.

Good for you. Tip: Make it a wiki for the catholics!
and what if this new pope takes www.benedictusxvi.com?
Hummm.....What Would Mel Gibson Do?

While I am not Catholic, I'm of the next-best thing - Episcopalian. Everything but the Pope! Nice, huh? The English thought so...
Anyway, thanks for keeping the name away from the smut vendors.

i'm from poland. Good Idea.
I was very sickened when I heard spam went out the day JP died trying to make a buck off his death. I think you did good by keeping this name from the lower depths of the internet. I like what you have done and helping to support this site by google ad's is a great idea.. You should think about give this domain to the Vatican at some point.

I thought the name might be Benedict or Gregory. It's been awhile for the latter.
The catholic church took enough money from the people: now get it back ! Congrats !
spoko pomysl !!! a nice idea.. :))))
You are just making money off the BenedictXVI.com domain with the Google Ads.
Don't even try deny that. I have Google Ads on my own websites so I know how profitable it can be especially if there is a surge in traffic and likelyness of prolonged traffic to the website.
Wow, wish I'd thought of that.....
The Vatican and all things related to the pope are boring, therefore I definitely suggest slapping some boobies up or at least selling it to someone who can.
Interesting story!!
Good luck, with whatever you choose to do with teh domain... I'll be back to see :)
I don't think there's any harm in making money off of this. I really wish I had come up with it.

Hi!! I'm dawid from poland. I'm 17. I was so sad when John Paul II died. At now when the Pope is BenedictXVI I think that you give this website to 'good hands' :) no porn, no comercion
Do what you will. Commercialism at its best!
ROGL'd so hard my socks fell off
Hey, if you were witty enough to snap up the domain name of the pope, I say make enough money off of it as you can. And I also agree with Mr. DIGITALSIN, atleast show some boobies.
.....Hello,(Hola(Spanish), Wie geht's(German), Boun Jour(French), Annyoung (Korean), Ni hao(Chinese)
You've got a new pope.. (German Pope)
Sie haben der neu pope..(Deutch Pope)
" '" "..(" ')
As an italian who speaks complete three foreign languages(English, Gemran, Korean).. I'd like to say "Congratulation for the pope".
God bless him and hopefully he wil not just tend to be conservative. German pope, go for it, yeah.. Lovin' it.... You, who established this site, are such a great predictor whom I'd like to work with for my company. Please Keep in touch with me.

The dream will come true..
You are just making money off the BenedictXVI.com domain with the Google Ads.
$155 so far. With $72 in expenses, I've earned $73! But I'm not concerned about the money, as long as my server expenses are paid for. You can't place a dollar value on what it feels like to have people all over the world thank you for not being a pornographer.

Dude, talk to a tax attorney and find out how much this is worth as a write-off if you donate it to the vatican. I would guess more than you paid.
"If I didn't do it, someone less reputable would."
Nice one! You must think very highly of yourself.
((_ (()) ((_
It's very ingenious

Neo,you are the one.
Use the key wisely.
wish you tards would foad tbh
tbh I wish I had thought of this.
btw
Put something extremly offensive on there... hmm, maybe something about Popeh being in the Hitler youth... AGAGA
They will buy it for loads $$$
What about Rogers_Cadenhead.com ?
Greetings from Poland...and don't be stupid because of money!

Good investment, i give u props
ANTI-JAPAN
do for me.... Hate all Jap-companies like Honda, Toyota, Sony, Panasonic.. Let's boycott the Jap's products.. Japan sucks!
Wal, fook mah pook!
Dude.... you the man....
Hey there,
Today the 20th of april, you are mentioned into the website above.
It's written in the Dutch language, where this website tells about your adventure.
I wonder what name the next Pope will use if he want to change the Catholic policy in a progressive movement.
Maybe Mandela II
:-)
This is a piece of news that made my day.
Genuis of simplicity.
And this lot of guests.. most of people will briefly forget about it, but I'll try to hop in from time to time to leave comments and such.
Wish you luck, Palkers.
ANTI-Japan eh? Well, I'd be FOR-USA, but every product I've ever bought that's American has had some GREASY,FAT LAZY, PUD-WHACKING American making it, and it BREAKS within the week! And it's twice the price! And I AM American! So it's GO-JAPAN for me. (Plus the site would get a higher payoff hands down)
good thinking the pope rules
Hey there Rogers. Read about you buying www.BenedictXVI.com on a Danish website. Same happened in Denmark a couple of years ago when a Dane bought pretty much all adresses referring to the Danish royals. Unfortunately the Danish authorities banned his websites (they went blank) and in the end he sold the names. He used the adresses to spread false rumors of the Danish royals though. However buying adresses and selling to highest bidder is what I would do in your case. Heck, you got the idea, that should pay off.
hahaha good job dude! I hate the pope!
sell the domain to a company who make anticonception products like condoms or stuff like that. Or maybe to an abortion clinic. Don't listen to the pope! Stop aids now!!
LOL, this is a riot!! First of nicely done on the jumping of the gun on the domain name.. Secondly, I think it's so laughable all these comments from all you self-righteous Catholics about "the right thing to do" LOL!!!
I guess not doing the right thing in regards to child raping priests, hate mongering(i.e. anti-gay policies), passing off half-baked laws of old men as laws of God(i.e. purgatory, wearing condom is a sin etc), the bank of the Vatican having ties to mafia, etc is ok. Just don't infringe on their money making/propaganda spewing machine by taking a domain name.. Do I have it right???
I think you should sell it to the highest bidder no matter WHAT the content, and then give the money to your local food bank... OOOOOOOOOOO nothing like getting a nice healthy Karma hip check into the boards of hypocrisy is there silly Catholic zealots? :-)
Peace and Love to EVERYONE, and though we disagree on this earth, may we all dwell in the house of the Lord thanks to our Savior Jesus Christ :-)
Hello mr. Rogers. I have one question to You. Can You tell me what you think about John Paul II, what is your private opinion about this big man? Best whishes form Poland, good luck ;)
good job man! ..
you've had a good idea, and i think you should get good money for that ..
wish you luck!
Oh myself, you knew it before me!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hehe, you are constantly browsing through new posts...
Good thing you deleted that anti-semite provocator. He might have been a Pole, as many of them accuse you of leeching :P
Cheers, Palkers.
It is interesting to see how many posters here are not particularly religious but instead have intrinsically good ethics. One can see from their concerns about the current Pope's history that they remain centers of ethical awareness. There are many groups that are populated with such people, such as www.humanists.org, and the communitarian atmosphere and intrinsic moral compass makes the groups a refreshing place to be able to speak about all things with other perceptive people. This site fully seems to be a good example of how open discussion is a good thing.
Hehe, you are constantly browsing through new posts...
Good thing you deleted that anti-semite provocator. He might have been a Pole, as many of them accuse you of leeching :P
Cheers, Palkers.
Hehe you did a good job. But the pope don't like internet, correct me if i'm wrong. I think you'll earned a meet and greet with the new pope. They will pay your trip to Roma en you will give the name!
My parents gave me the name Benedictus (Ben) at my birth. If extra value has been added to it, because of the name of the new pope, my advice would be: Use this domain to spread the Word of God for FREE: www.e-sword.net. A very useful program in many languages!<>
Roger ,I think,it was sign from God...
Well done for your website, it is great that a honest catholic is owning this website. Keep up with the good work and god bless you.
Hector :)
"The world could have pulled up benedictxvi.com today to find an ecommerce site selling Catholic schoolgirl outfits for consenting adults."
Yeah, that's horrible. Adults doing things tghey want to do and are aware of what they are doing. Good thing we have religion to stop that nonsense! Some people out there are actual independent thinkers and take responsibility for their own actions instead of pointing the finger at a higher power. These people must go! Independent thinking and making personal choices about personal life-decisions should definitly not be left up to the individual!!!
Now, with less sarcasm, I suggest you sell this domain to an organization that counsels young boys who were the victims of sexual abuse, whether by a priest or not. That would be a good service, and couldn't possibly in anyway be deemed a sin. If providing help for others in a time of need or crisis is a sin, then there's no hope for any of us.
Great having this domain name registered before anyone els did it !
How much you want ?
Fuck you
There is a law that keeps people from steeling Domain Names from other people. I am quite sure the Pope had his name picked before you guessed it.
Now, if you would have purchased the Domain Name 2 years ago and did something with it, you would be fine.
If the Pope and the Vatican can proove they picked the name before you guessed it, that makes you a SYBERSQUATTER.... No matter what you think you will do with it.
I am quite sure you will be forced to turn it over (If they want it) unless they simply don't care about it.
this is really amazing. to understand that this website is going to put you into the limelight yet a strong conviction towards not using the website for demeaning purposes. Really must have done some serious soul searching.
Nice move, altho the vatican has .va as an extension so the addy will probably wind up being (www.BenedictXVI.va)
No. The new Pope may have decided what name he wanted before he was elected, but until he is elected, the name is meaningless. If I decide today to start a company named FooBarIndustries, but don't get the company started for 6 months, my rights to the name start after those 6 months, not at the inception of the idea.
Nice job Rogers. Any other tricks up your sleave?
Soak em for all they got. I'm a christian and no pope is gonna make me catholic!
Adorable. Who says God doesn't have a sense of humour. God loves all of us, even those of you who hate God, if you can imagine.
Glad to hear that you have noble light-hearted plans for this domain.
I love the the geeky fun of the publicity that you are generating! It would be brilliant if Pope Benedict were to leave his regards here. The world should laugh at itself more often. :D
All the best,

Wow! can not believe there are so many misguided people out there. Come on people, its just a web address and Ratzinger is just a man in the wrong religion....
Interesting how this paid off.
Of course you'll be donating this given that your ads have now paid fro it over and over again?
:D
Isn't not doing anything bad with the name too passive? Shouldn't you ask your conscience what good you can do with it? Perhaps something that helps people be more tolerant of others who are different than they are?
its so stupid, get it off
Since the media makes Ratzinger out to be completely against homosexuality, obviously you should sell it to a gay rights group just to spite the church. Way to go on buying the site, hopefully you can make a few bucks with this too.
Rogers, good idea not to sell to sinful companies.
I am very pleased with the name that the new Pope chose to use. Benedict XVI is a beautiful name, and to me, it reflects class and homage.
Dang it! My money was on Pope Fester the First.
Give your domain name to a liberalish Catholic group to lay out the alternatives to Ratzinger's policies--a Catholicism about love, compassion, and conscience rather than hard-assed legalism. I hope the new Pope will exceed my expectations, but the likelihood is that he will be rather a doctrinal tyrant.
well thought out mate
I'VE JUST SENT THIS TO THE POPE
arbiter.wipo.int
make as much as you can..good luck
YOU HAVE ONE .COM THE POPE HAS THE WHOLE OF .VA
Definetely go with the condom company or one of the liberal groups :-)
Dear Sir Rogers,
I would like to apologize you for my natives - Poland is still a countryside (literally), most of Poles can merely utter a word, or two, some of them though can construct a sentence (majority of them now rule our country(side)).
I do hope your server will survive till next week, and I would strongly recommend you to close this subject and delete most of the posts.
Try not to think badly of Poles - think of them as of poor, imbecile fools that they are.
Cheers, Palkers.
Way to go dude! You are definately smarter than me.
I don't think that my web servers could handle the traffic you're getting.
Any ideas for a gimmic on selling my book?

Are you an artist ready to paint the next Pope?
visit www.dartoo.com for art supplies!
The best thing you could do for yourself is to offer the domain name as a selfless sacrifice to the Pope.
Greetings from Mxico!
well thought!
Mr Cadenhead you are a genius!
Can anybody dispel or confirm the rumour that Eggs benedict were named for an earlier Pope Benedict?
entry in www.metesaca.com
Nicely done.
How about a discussion site on the pope's performance, call it 'Rate My Pope' or 'Pope Idol'?
Now dont get me wrong, i got nothing against any religion but,
Its funny how 'every man is equal' in christianity and then you have the cardinals and the pope etc etc lauding it up there in their luxury castles with their 200 rooms and silk robes.. equal my ass."we must help the poor... pour me some crystaal and a teaspoon of caviar butler"
And.. all this bull about "sacrifice the domain to the pope" .. sacrifice? to a man? hes a just a man! people are so stupid.. goin nuts over some x-nazi ..
the church.. laughing all the way to the bank.. maybe they should rename the 'church' to the 'piggy bank'
Why are so many people bashing the new pope he has been here like a day and non- Catholics (who's 80,000 plus) faiths are not criticized by the church are talking about things they really don't know all that much about? If you are going to criticize something at least know what you are talking about...nice site Mr. Cadenhead!
Disrespect to you
Everything you need to know about faith - www.samharris.org
I am not superstitious, but I think Pope Benedict XVI could very well pass as Petrus Romanus in St. Malachy's prophecy. After all, "petrus" refers to a rock. The pope who gained a name as Joseph Ratzinger is after all very well identified with Rome, and is a steadfast, immovable rock as far as doctrine is concerned.
Pope John Paul II can also qualify as "de gloria olivae" because he spent his life tearing walls and promoting peace, even personally going to jail to visit Mehmet Ali Agca He is a personification of the success of peace efforts.
Anyway, here's praying for guidance for the Holy Father from the Holy Spirit, the Paraclete.
Great site! You are a genius!

Oh, I nearly forgot... Hugs & kisses for grandma Rita.
YoYoYO, I wanted to tell ya man, ur a genius. How much wuld the church pay ya for this website?? Oho... I bet they might offer from a range of 0 to a million.

How much do the porn sits offer you.
Ha just curious
"Darwin v Benedict XVI (or a fundamentalist of any other religion for that matter !) - any input from his eminence might be most enlightening. Otherwise some of us will keep looking forwards rather than walking backwards."
Ray,
Pope JP2 recognized evolution, and so will Benedict. So in the scientific context it's not accurate to call B16 a "fundamentalist". :-P
Cheers, and have a nice day, etc, etc!

how can the church be gay if they oppose homosexuality?
You heard me. Argh.
hello from So Paulo/Brazil
Mr Cadenhead,
I simply don't get it. What is this big fuss all about? That you registered an internet domain? OK fine. So what? And my neighbour's dog can flush the toilet.
I probably shouldn't even start it. But lemme just say this - a pope and a great man has died - the whole world mourns him (some people don't care much - and they have a right not to - it's OK too). But whatever you do - either care or just ignore it - I would have never made the connection - new pope with the net and jump it to save up a couple of domains under likely papal names.
Well - do what you please but I see a picture of a guy who would run home to grab a camera if he saw an accident or even a kid falling off a bike - just to take a couple of shots (not to sell even - but just for the fun of it). A pope dies - run to the internet register a website - is that a normal reaction (I am not judging right or wrong) it is just weird and kinda sad. You must be a very sad person deep down. Normal people have lives - they laugh or cry..... I don't know ... Are we still living in a normal world or maybe One flew over the cuckoo's nest ...
Perhaps you are a genius but so is my neighbor's dog by this token - have a good life
J.
You should give the domain to the Pope for free. It's HIS name.
Gave me a laugh, great idea, send me some of the money you're going to get
The Catholics are all about money, I'd say sell it to the highest bidder. Even a porn company. I mean, God made us do porn, right? If anything, God is happy that all these geeks are getting into the whole mess!
Well the church's policy is not gay. But its students are. Read the old news on catholic students in Austria.
