Sedeplenism ("the seat being occupied") is a neologism created to provide a term for the position opposed to sedevacantism. It has gained currency in online theological debate. Although the term etymologically includes adherents of rival conclavist or mysticalist claimants, it is generally applied to adherents of the line of popes from John XXIII to Francis.
