Boy memorizes all 265 popes! His Catholic memory secrets will help your memory, too.

Recently a wise midwestern priest wowed his parishioners by pausing in his sermon to recite from memory --- and in order --- the names of all 44 United States presidents!

* "But wait," he said, holding up a hand to stifle applause. "Greater things are yet to come." "However, before I show you," he continued, "note this: although we've had lots of presidents, the Catholic Church already had 220 popes before the first American president was ever inaugurated. That's how old our Church is, and how ancient the origins of our beloved Eucharist!" * "But I told you that greater things are yet to come." "John Paul," he motioned to an eleven-year-old in the pews. "Come up here." John Paul walked nervously to the front of the Church, faced the tabernacle, and prayed silently. Behind him, Father and an associate held up a large poster with the names and images on it of every single pope --- from Peter to Benedict XVI.

Young John Paul then proceeded to name all 265 popes, in order and from memory!

John Paul with all 265 popes.

But there's something here
that's even greater than that!

You see, John Paul is clever, but he's no prodigy. He memorized all 265 popes by using a simple memory system created over 700 years ago by St. Thomas Aquinas, and recently revived by Dr. Kevin Vost . . . a system so simple it also helped a 5-year-old learn her numbers, letters, shapes, and colors:

As they taught young John Paul and Sonya's little daughter, Thomas Aquinas and Kevin Vost can teach you and your kids to remember virtually anything: . . . names, dates, phone numbers, passwords, the first 12 digits of pi (3.141592653589, if you really want to know!), and even whether, on the way home, you're supposed to buy ice cream and toffee (or was ittruffles and coffee?)
