An inquiry made to obtain any information is known as an interrogation. While asking the person tries to get an answer that allows him to satisfy his doubts. The interviewers often ask simple questions in a very twisted fashion to confuse the candidates. Difficult questions-answers reflect the knowledge of the giver as well as his overall personality. For example: 'Which is heavier: a kilogram of feathers or 1000 grams of lead?' (Solution: Both the weights are equal). And 'What happened in Kolkata yesterday from 8 to 9 o'clock? (Solution: An hour had passed).' These questions have a trick because they are framed in such a way that the answers seem simple, but in reality, they are not. It can be said that the questioners confuse the candidates as they hide their answers using rhetorical resources and various devices. In some cases, the answer is found in the question itself, but in secret. Tricky questions are also used for fun or as a mental activity of logical practice. Like a truck driver passing down a street in the wrong direction, some policemen saw him, but they didn't say anything to him, why? (Solution: Because the truck driver was on foot). He shaves all day but still has a beard, who is he? (Solution: Barber). Some months have thirty days and others thirty-one, but how many months have twenty-eight? (Solution: Every month has at least twenty-eight days). Which object becomes wet When it dries? (Solution: Towel) How do you draw a square with three lines? (Solution: draw the square first and then draw three lines inside the square). Thus, an answer to a tricky question can lead to confusion due to the confusion-generated question. These types of questions are very specific to the areas in which people's knowledge or behavior is evaluated. Generally, such difficult questions can be perceived as misleading or incorrect because something is being implied that is not in reality. However, they can also be seen as methods whose precise purpose is to test the candidate and determine whether he or she is fully capable of answering the question that he or she is saying. I know. In this way, about five thousand questions and answers have been given in the present book, which is equally useful for all competitive examinations.

Why doesn't God answer my prayers? If God is so powerful, why does evil exist? And if He is so good, why do we suffer? Nonbelievers, and even Christians, are often troubled by questions about suffering, doubt, failure, and unanswered prayer. Yet careful, compassionate answers are hard to find, in part because evangelicals have not taken the life of the mind seriously enough. The intellectual currents of our day are just too strong for simplistic responses. In Hard Questions, Real Answers, William Lane Craig doesn't offer trite phrases or pat answers-he offers honest insights gained from a life of study and ministry. Readers in the midst of doubt and confusion will find real answers to these perplexing questions and learn to stand on the only sure foundation for hope-God Himself.

When we have difficult questions, the Bible has answers. Join Rick Warren, pastor and New York Times bestselling author, as he invites us to take a closer look at key biblical figures and the ways in which they faced difficult questions and challenges in their daily lives. In God's Answers to Life's Difficult Questions, Warren uses stories from scripture to teach us that the Bible is filled with examples of real people who faced the same dilemmas we're facing today. By demonstrating the ways in which God chooses to use ordinary people to accomplish his plans--despite their weaknesses and failures--Warren gives us hope as we take on life's countless challenges. Better yet, Warren provides us with realistic solutions that we can start putting into practice today. Taking us inside the lives of biblical characters including Moses, Paul, and Jesus himself, Warren gives us a chance to see the up-close-and-personal ways they navigated their own circumstances. Although God's Answers to Life's Difficult Questions is anchored in timeless stories from scripture, Warren also weaves in modern examples that address the twelve questions he's asked the most as a spiritual leader, including: How can I learn to handle discouragement? How can I respond better in a crisis? How do I become more resilient when I feel like a failure? How can I fight my loneliness? How is change possible for me? How can I lead a more peaceful life? The concrete, practical insights that Warren shares in God's Answers to Life's Difficult Questions will give you the tools you need to build up your resilience, strengthen your relationship with God, and finally enjoy a life full of lasting purpose, peace, and significance.

Bernice King, the youngest daughter of Martin Luther King, Jr., and Coretta Scott King, is an ordained minister, an attorney, and one of this country's most admired speakers. As this remarkable collection of her sermons and speeches makes clear, she shares with her father a rare gift for oratory and the wisdom and compassion to inspire others. The collection begins with words designed to "disturb the comfortable." Tackling such controversial subjects as our disaffected youth, gun control, and the death penalty, King paints a compelling picture of the spiritual decay and deep-seated racism that infects our society. In the second part of the book, a selection of sermons focusing on "comforting the disturbed," King's belief in the power of faith to restore our communities, morally and spiritually, rings forth. The church, she asserts, must return to its helping and healing mission, and each of us, looking into our hearts, must put aside our differences and remember that each human life is precious.

Those who seek to accurately gauge public opinion must first ask themselves: Why are certain opinions highly volatile while others are relatively fixed? Why are some surveys affected by question wording or communicative medium (e.g., telephone) while others seem immune? In Hard Choices, Easy Answers, R. Michael Alvarez and John Brehm develop a new theory of response variability that, by reconciling the strengths and weaknesses of the standard approaches, will help pollsters and scholars alike better resolve such perennial problems. Working within the context of U.S. public opinion, they contend that the answers Americans give rest on a variegated structure of political predispositions--diverse but widely shared values, beliefs, expectations, and evaluations. Alvarez and Brehm argue that respondents deploy what they know about politics (often little) to think in terms of what they value and believe. Working with sophisticated statistical models, they offer a unique analysis of not just what a respondent is likely to choose, but also how variable those choices would be under differing circumstances. American public opinion can be characterized in one of three forms of variability, conclude the authors: ambivalence, equivocation, and uncertainty. Respondents are sometimes ambivalent, as in attitudes toward abortion or euthanasia. They are often equivocal, as in views about the scope of government. But most often, they are uncertain, sure of what they value, but unsure how to use those values in political choices.
