As a joke, I wanted to say that those nutters can have the .god domain, then I looked and found this:

Vatican vetos 'dot god' domain
The Pope has called on ICANN to keep religion out of the domain name system.
The Vatican warned the internet address-making body of the “perils” of allowing new internet domains such as “.catholic, .anglican, .orthodox, .hindu, .islam, .muslim, [and] .buddhist”.

sometimes the reality is stranger than your imagination, also nice that His Majesty also rejects domains of other religions than his own... Somehow I think this shouldn't be his call...
A warning from the Vatican should be taken serious, never underestimate the military might of the Swiss Guard!
