This is the story of Pope Benedict IX, one of the youngest popes in history, the first pope to willfully step down as pope, and the pope who was on the papal throne not once, not twice, but three times.

The modern renunciation certainly appears more outwardly peaceful, but it is impossible to overstate the amount of intrigue that led up to it.
"in this instance it wasn't so Innocent"
no in this instance it was Benedict and John.
POPE BENEDICT IX was famous for public parties which got more outrageous
and spectacular with time. He was more interested in being Pope to have fun less than to serve God.
there is no serving god in being pope
@@harrisonsamwel3112 well said. I agree completely.
@@harrisonsamwel3112 he’s literally the vicar of Christ and the head of the church
Most popes were like that but kept up appearances for the most part.
@@popefrancis8153 not really. It was a created office and Jesus never designated a successor. Most popes were never elected on merit but lineage. Bribery, blackmail and even murder were a norm in electing the (western) Catholic Church.
We are living in an era of "first in a long time" resignations. In addition to the previous Pope, the previous Emperor of Japan resigned a couple of years ago also do to age related factors.
And otherrs had to go,no matter what. Remember John Pail I?

Amazing video! Great job!
Love your channel! Keep it up man
Excellent video, your channel will surely take off.
We've all seen the CGP Grey video, after all.
I had heard parts of this story before, but lead me more to confusion than understanding. Thanks for the summary,
Awesome stuff man!! You earned a new sub!!
3:25 "...in this instance, it was not so Innocent..."
I see what you did there. :)
Wow, thanks for the info ❤️
The worst thing about the resignation of benadict 16 is that it was partially resignation
Well having two popes is not a new thing. There were even three popes at the same time.
Such an interesting channel....subscribed....
It was speculated at the time of Benedict XVI election that he chose the then unpopular name to signal his willingness to resign if necessary (though not to cause havoc by returning multiple times). What do you think?
Not saying you’re wrong, but how unpopular could the name be when there were 7 other popes after the IX to use that name?
Imagine Emperor Henry III hearing about Rome and being like "bruh."
Idk that'd be funny I think
Saying bruh is normie
@@Perririri normie? That's not a thing I've heard since the battle of '16. Perhaps we should keep it there
Saying bruh is normie
@@Perririri It wasn't normie back in the Middle Ages.
That laugh 3:52 was from MJ's Thriller, right?
Great video but,...wait...why the hell is there only 15 comments??
A peaceful passing doesn't guarantee a better Pope...
if you make a playlist of the monarcs of rome, omg all the pontifus maximos
Sylvester III, more like Senator Palpatine
The hat in thumbnail looks good.
Ayy cgp grey fan
Love the picture of the Bush family, that dynasty is Barbra Bush's. She is a descendant of Franklin Pierce.
No, that would be Alexander VI.
Most spineless to stop evil when he could have done something was Clement V.
The definition of nepotism
I thought there was something wrong with my computer at the 08:00 of the video
Who else is here from Blue’s Pope Fights from OSP?
well, surprise!! we evolved as a society and are now much more diplomatic.. .
wikipedia unusual articles
What... Italy, German in the Mediaeval Ages? Calling an abdication a renunci...ciciatation? I wonder if the rest of your videos are equally bungled.
The king of the Germans usually became Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire of German nation, crowned by the Pope of Rome.
one big historical mistake, you said "the Eastern Orthodox Church broke from the Catholic Church", this is wrong. The Church broke in two and not one side from the other side.
Actually not true! The very word "Catholic" nean "Universal" as in united... not saying which side was right or wrong, but the Catholic side wanted to maintain the church united (under Rome of course) while the other refused (cause they didn't thought Rome had the right of supremacy)... valid argument, if you think which (supposedly) virgin claims to be the representative of Christ is valid whatsoever.
Again, not at all interested in "right" and "wrong", just in accurancy, but the Catholic side wanted unification, while the Orthodox side did not, probably for good reasons, but... that makes the Orthodox Church the very definition of breaking out from a united (Catholic) system...
@@Skerdy the terms "catholic" and "orthodox" are technicall terms, they don't represent a theological or dogmatic accuracy. 1) the catholic church may not be a real universal church because the authority of the pope was only on the geographic regions of Europe, the eastern churches have authority on Asia and Africa. The church of Rome had only one patriarch (the pope) bat the eastern churches had 4 patriachets ( Constantinople, Alexandria, Antioch, and Jerusalem). So the eastern churches looks Mach more universal than Rome. 2) at 10th century the eastern empire had a huge population in large cities , in the same era west had no big population. 3) the supremacy of the Rome is recognized by the eastern churches bat eastern traditions is not understanding this supremacy as an authority of the pope over the entire churche, the supremacy in the eastern tradition is understud as a Honore among the pentarchy of the 5 patriarchetes, bat this honore it das'not mean the pope has the right to have opinion or roll in the internal of an other patriarchete.
You are right that the church split in two. The cause was culture and changing the Nicean Creed as well as papal authority.
Cuture: the Western churches used Latin in the liturgy while the Eastern Churches used the common languages of the people. The liturgy was different in the west as many churches developed their own styles of worship and prayer (the Dominion Rite, the Liturgy of St. James are two examples). The Eastern churches used The Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom. The monastics in the West practiced a more communal life while the Eastern monastics were individual in practice only gathering for Liturgy.
Creed and papal authority: the Roman pontiff inserted the filique into the creed without the approval of a council. The Council of Nicea formulated the creed so a council was needed to change it. Those differences are why the churches never have been in full communion with each other. The West did not unify it's Liturgy untill The Council of Trent 1000 years later.
The Western churches are not in full communion with each other and sadly remains much less united than those in the East.
If you read the early Church fathers, you would see that the Church has always been Catholic united with the Petrine Primacy.
Both are wrong. Constantine created the story both believe in which is based on Roman Gods he believed in. I know it's too late to go back but Atleast try to.
It seems that history is repeating itself. We haven't learned from past mistakes so are doomed to repeat them
this is why we worship God and not the leaders in the Church
What proof do you have that you don't worship God created by leaders? What if whole bible was made up by generations and generations of edit by these leaders?
@@bunnygirl8482 bibles, Quran, Islam Christianity, Jewish..ect... all designed by some Highe power ( not God ) for control and manipulation of people to not question the creation and the world around them and to distract them compare the ancient Greece, Persia, Rome, Egypt, ect to after when religions appeared! Compare them to medival times! How much humanity was held back until renisance
Sorry of the bad English
According to this video, he was also the first to sell the papacy.
Man how rich was his dad !? That must of been the world's largest bribe
Na. Kennedy and Bush familie make this look amateurish.
earth is Heaven I'm not giving my Power up
I assume you’re referring to Catholic Popes of Rome, not Orthodox Popes of Alexandria nor Coptic Popes of Alexandria (nor Orthodox Popes of Rome (prior to 12/25/800)).
He was once, twice, three times the Antichrist! And when for a time there were three popes at once, they all hurled anathemas and damnations at one another and calling each other, "Antichrist". All three were correct!!!
😂 the Catholic Church echelons has become exactly the same structure as the Jewish church in the New Testament times, which Jesus denounced.
@@dontalkt2meboutheros Exactly, and what is even more significant is the fact that the Roman Catholic Priesthood continue to make sacrifices and oblations after Jesus caused all sacrifices and oblations to cease 2000 years ago when He Himself became the sacrifice to end all sacrifices in the midst of the 70th and final week of Daniel's 70 week prophecy as recorded in Daniel 9:24-27. We know that the Jewish hierarchy (priesthood) also continued to make sacrifices after Christ's crucifixion because they didn't acknowledge the blood of Jesus. To put a permanent end to this abomination, God used the Roman Tenth Legion to raze the Temple to the ground and scattered the Jews. Soon, God will do the same to their Roman Catholic equivalents.
@@vaticanjesuitNWO Remember though, with God anything is possible.
@@dontalkt2meboutheros ???
@@vaticanjesuitNWO Seriously? My comment shouldn't render 3 question marks. You should know the depth of that meaning. Surely?
So much holiness around catholicism -_-
First you say that popes weren't elected back then but then you say that Gregory was 'elected.'
What?
I'd rather have a Benedict ix than a Francis i. At least the former was a Catholic.
Only if what you mean by "was a Catholic" is r*ping animals, which I mean that's not too far off when you see what's done to children
Benedict IX is still alive today at 94.
XVI
The Pope you wrote about, Benedict the 9th, was born in 1012. He is very much not alive today.
Then, I dont understand why so much of Islamaphobia... even though we love & adore Jesus (PBUH)....
still corrupted
So much for "installed by God".....Is a wonder that they could walk with those clay feet......
Actually the Catholic Church doesn’t teach that the Pope is installed by God. The Church believes that God works with who ever the college of cardinals elect.
Any organization that is over 2,000 years will certainly have very bad leaders at some point.
They are all the same!
They should be put the truth out!
eastern church did not split from the catholic, nor even catholics split from the eastern church. that hapen is that the ancient church divited in two fractions
Yeah, the garter to you back the herder it is to say that entities like earthen church or Catholic church or “the church” existed. Not lots of official records from a minority religion of slaves and the poor.
Some people wanted power so they founded catholic church
It's like if Donald Trump was a pope
"Religion began when the first scoundrel met the first fool." ~ Voltaire
Check out Mr Voltaire's voluminous writings on the Jews and then ask yourself if you wanna quote him as some clever wise man.
@@polemeros that's the most stupid thing I've heard all week
@@hugsli How so?
@@hugsli You are observant. Voltaire was a Rationalist. He wrote a lot on Judaism because Christianity is a descendant of the Abrahamic bloodline. Just like Islam claims to be.
Hahahaha..."When the Eastern Orthodox Church broke from the Catholic church".
Laugh of the month! Thanks for making history funny!
That's a truth
WOW JUST WOW!!... I know it was most up but not like that lol... tbh I can't say I would not have down the same my self but I would have not been that bad of a pope eathere lol
Graaiers, en maar bidden.
depoped
The word "willfully" is misused. "Willfully" means arrogantly, stubbornly or hardheadedly, resisting good advice or common sense. "Willingly" isn't quite accurate either, since Benedict was forced to resign. If you're going to use a word, for Chrissakes' use it correctly.
Well, here in 'MuriKKKa, we now have Oberfuhrer Drumpf...
You spelt America wrong
The Catholic Church broke from the Eastern Orthodox Church which was founded in 33 AD
They're not really broke off from anyone, they were just one of many spurs from the past Christian sect being organized locally and had their own unique creed and canonical Bible in many ancient cities that will continue to live on, and the major archbishop for Christian at that time were consisted of Constantinople, Rome, Antioch, Jerusalem, and Alexandria, but again there were another in Armenia, Abyssinia, Nubia, Gaelic, etc. Then of course being unified after the Meeting of Niceae in 3rd century, but then again in the midst of East-West Schism in 8-9th century, actually more or less the Catholic Roman Church had been organized as independent archbishop from any influence from Constantinople, and since the beginning they have few exclusive privilege more than other archbishop. For me the correct term might be Latin church and Greek church parting away in opposing direction from being one unified Church.
* 29 AD
Other way round.
A simple read of the Church fathers confirm that the Church has always been Catholic in union with the Petrine Primacy.
Yeah, Controlled by powerful people rather than community itself. Catholic church is similer to dictator who can bend history the way he wants. Do people even know real history of jesus and early church?
the catholic church break up from the orthodox one not viceversa

They both broke up from each other. Usually smaller parts break from the big part so the best way to determine who broke from who is to figure out which one had the largest membership at that time.
History keeps showing us how much the see of Rome is unfit to be the seat of the Christian church. :(
History keeps on showing us that humans are imperfect
@@popefrancis8153 After a long and notorious history, the bishop of Rome 'giving' Ireland to the King of England was the final nail in the coffin. The Sees closing of Scriptorums killed education for the laity, it's replacing of an Abbess with Temporally appointed Abbot's, an abhorrence. Canada's residential school system, just icing on the cake of corruption that includes gross antisemitism. That sir is well beyond simple imperfection.
Oh and let's not mention it tolerances for child diddling priests.
@@mikemcmullin149 that sir is humanity in a nutshell
You can’t expect total Godliness when you have humans in control of something
Any organization that is over 2000 years old will certainly have many bad leaders. Humans are just flawed.
Not the worst pope in history. The worst is Francis, followed by St. Paul VI
Idiocy of some sedevacantist
@@tobyroyparkerjr.233 no sedevacantist here. They are popes. Just bad popes.
A christian (catholic) here and most of us dont even see francis as a pope. 😂😂😂
Sure...
Do you understand Catholicism? He was chosen by the bishops if you don’t agree then that makes you a christian protestant.
@@KTBFFH8 Technically by the cardinals but yeah you're right
@@KTBFFH8 I understand more than you. Yeah he's the pope sure. But just like not all the president of a country's does good stuff always a pope can be the same. Just because he is the pope doesn't mean he cant be wrong. In fact francis is a disgrace to the chair of st.peter.
Any man that desires to be called holy father is a child of satan. Only God is the Holy Father.
He couldn't possibly be the worst Pope in history since the current occupant of Peter's Throne is, hands down, the worst Pope in history!
Worst Pope in history? Francis. By a country mile.
Why? Just because he reformed your religion rituals?
@@bunnygirl8482 My “religion rituals”? Dolt.
Why
@@sarto2010 double standards
Francis is the worst, sorry.
I think pope Francis is the worst pope,he ought to jump ship to the Protestant church instead of ruining the true catholic church
