I've been following the developments around the benedictxvi.com website. For those not in the know, Rogers Ceadenhead of cruel.com registered the site. Rogers seems a nice enough guy (I've never met him) and runs several sites (newsworthy drudge.com among them) It seems some enterprising Italian registered the site benedict16.com.Now what is interesting is the two wildly divergent paths these two are taking with their prospectively lucrative investments. Rogers has offerred his site to the Catholic church and while waiting for a response is letting a charity have it; the Italian fellow has his up for bids, no discrimination to the buyer (porn, gamblingl, etc.). I would invite you to visit both Rogers' personal blog as well as the benedict16.com website to see the drama for yourself. I was personally fond of the Itallian guy's Jungian defense (excuse? explanation) of his actions, see the site for details..
