"Did Hampshire Constabulary record fewer or more crime incidents in 2009/10 than the year before?",
"For how many consecutive years has violent crime in Southampton decreased?",
"Is Southampton's crime rate higher or lower than the national average?",
"Which statistics are debated because of the different ways various police forces record crime?"
] | According to Hampshire Constabulary figures, Southampton is currently safer than it has ever been before, with dramatic reductions in violent crime year on year for the last three years. Data from the Southampton Safer City Partnership shows there has been a reduction in all crimes in recent years and an increase in crime detection rates. According to government figures Southampton has a higher crime rate than the national average. There is some controversy regarding comparative crime statisitics due to inconsistencies between different police forces recording methodologies. For example, in Hampshire all reported incidents are recorded and all records then retained. However, in neighbouring Dorset crimes reports withdrawn or shown to be false are not recorded, reducing apparent crime figures. In the violence against the person category, the national average is 16.7 per 1000 population while Southampton is 42.4 per 1000 population. In the theft from a vehicle category, the national average is 7.6 per 1000 compared to Southampton's 28.4 per 1000. Overall, for every 1,000 people in the city, 202 crimes are recorded. Hampshire Constabulary's figures for 2009/10 show fewer incidents of recorded crime in Southampton than the previous year. | question: How many crimes overall are reported for each 1,000 people in Southampton?, answer: 202 | question: Did Hampshire Constabulary record fewer or more crime incidents in 2009/10 than the year before?, answer: fewer | question: For how many consecutive years has violent crime in Southampton decreased?, answer: three | question: Is Southampton's crime rate higher or lower than the national average?, answer: higher | question: Which statistics are debated because of the different ways various police forces record crime?, answer: comparative crime statisitics | 500 |

It was named to honour the Caliph Ali Ibn Abi Talib, who was also known as Haydar because of his lion-like valour in battles. Andrew Petersen, a scholar of Islamic architecture, says the city was originally called Baghnagar (city of gardens). One popular theory suggests that Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah, the founder of the city, named it "Bhagyanagar" or "Bhāgnagar" after Bhagmati, a local nautch (dancing) girl with whom he had fallen in love. She converted to Islam and adopted the title Hyder Mahal. The city was renamed Hyderabad in her honour.

] | According to Joshua Baron – a "researcher, lecturer, and consultant on international conflict" – since the early 1960s direct military conflicts and major confrontations have "receded into the background" with regards to relations among the great powers. Baron argues several reasons why this is the case, citing the unprecedented rise of the United States and its predominant position as the key reason. Baron highlights that since World War Two no other great power has been able to achieve parity or near parity with the United States, with the exception of the Soviet Union for a brief time. This position is unique among the great powers since the start of the modern era (the 16th century), where there has traditionally always been "tremendous parity among the great powers". This unique period of American primacy has been an important factor in maintaining a condition of peace between the great powers. | question: Since what time has military conflicts receded?, answer: 1960s | question: What country has risen above other superpowers?, answer: United States | question: Since what century has there always been parity in powers?, answer: modern era (the 16th century) | question: Who's primacy has factored into maintaining peace among powers?, answer: American | 504 |

] | According to Martin Heidegger we do not exist inside time, we are time. Hence, the relationship to the past is a present awareness of having been, which allows the past to exist in the present. The relationship to the future is the state of anticipating a potential possibility, task, or engagement. It is related to the human propensity for caring and being concerned, which causes "being ahead of oneself" when thinking of a pending occurrence. Therefore, this concern for a potential occurrence also allows the future to exist in the present. The present becomes an experience, which is qualitative instead of quantitative. Heidegger seems to think this is the way that a linear relationship with time, or temporal existence, is broken or transcended. We are not stuck in sequential time. We are able to remember the past and project into the future—we have a kind of random access to our representation of temporal existence; we can, in our thoughts, step out of (ecstasis) sequential time. | question: Who suggested that humankind does not exist inside time, but is time?, answer: Martin Heidegger | question: The relationship to the future is the state of anticipating what?, answer: a potential possibility, task, or engagement | question: What is considered a qualitative experience rather than a quantitative one?, answer: The present | question: According to Heidegger, what can we do, in our thoughts?, answer: step out of (ecstasis) sequential time. | 505 |

] | According to Mendelian inheritance, variations in an organism's phenotype (observable physical and behavioral characteristics) are due in part to variations in its genotype (particular set of genes). Each gene specifies a particular trait with different sequence of a gene (alleles) giving rise to different phenotypes. Most eukaryotic organisms (such as the pea plants Mendel worked on) have two alleles for each trait, one inherited from each parent.:20 | question: According to Mendelian inheritance, what is part of the cause of variations in an organism's phenotype?, answer: variations in its genotype | question: What sort of characteristics are described by an organism's phenotype?, answer: observable physical and behavioral characteristics | question: What is a genotype?, answer: particular set of genes | question: What specifies a particular trait with a different sequence of alleles?, answer: Each gene | question: How many alleles do most eukaryotic organisms have for each trait?, answer: two alleles for each trait | 507 |

] | According to Milton Friedman, before the Industrial Revolution virtually all children worked in agriculture. During the Industrial Revolution many of these children moved from farm work to factory work. Over time, as real wages rose, parents became able to afford to send their children to school instead of work and as a result child labour declined, both before and after legislation. Austrian School economist Murray Rothbard said that British and American children of the pre- and post-Industrial Revolution lived and suffered in infinitely worse conditions where jobs were not available for them and went "voluntarily and gladly" to work in factories. | question: Where did children work prior to the Industrial Revolution?, answer: agriculture | question: How many children worked?, answer: virtually all | question: Where did children go to work after doing farm work for so long?, answer: factory work | question: What did parents do when the wages were finally raised?, answer: send their children to school instead of work | 508 |

Orthodox Judaism thus holds that the halakha represents the "will of God", either directly, or as closely to directly as possible. The laws are from the word of God in the Torah, using a set of rules also revealed by God to Moses on Mount Sinai, and have been derived with the utmost accuracy and care, and thus the Oral Law is considered to be no less the word of God. If some of the details of Jewish law may have been lost over the millennia, they were reconstructed in accordance with internally consistent rules; see The 13 rules by which Jewish law was derived. | question: What is jewish law today based on?, answer: Torah | question: what does the halakha represent to orthodox judiasm?, answer: will of God | question: Where were the rules about the Torah revealed to Moses by God?, answer: Mount Sinai | question: How many rules are jewish law derived from?, answer: 13 | question: What law is considered to be no less the word of god?, answer: Oral Law | 509 |

] | According to Paul Martin, Sr., by the end of the 1970s the Queen was worried that the Crown "had little meaning for" Pierre Trudeau, the Canadian Prime Minister. Tony Benn said that the Queen found Trudeau "rather disappointing". Trudeau's supposed republicanism seemed to be confirmed by his antics, such as sliding down banisters at Buckingham Palace and pirouetting behind the Queen's back in 1977, and the removal of various Canadian royal symbols during his term of office. In 1980, Canadian politicians sent to London to discuss the patriation of the Canadian constitution found the Queen "better informed ... than any of the British politicians or bureaucrats". She was particularly interested after the failure of Bill C-60, which would have affected her role as head of state. Patriation removed the role of the British parliament from the Canadian constitution, but the monarchy was retained. Trudeau said in his memoirs that the Queen favoured his attempt to reform the constitution and that he was impressed by "the grace she displayed in public" and "the wisdom she showed in private". | question: About whom was Elizabeth worried in the 1970s?, answer: Pierre Trudeau | question: What was the subject under consideration in discussions in 1980?, answer: Canadian constitution | question: What did patriation of the Canadian Constitution remove from the constitution?, answer: British parliament | question: What was retained in the constitution?, answer: monarchy | question: What did Trudeau say Elizabeth favored?, answer: reform | 510 |

This is the only reality we can deal with and we cannot for example say that Homer exists because at the present time he does not.

] | According to Strabo, the Greco-Bactrians seem to have had contacts with China through the silk road trade routes (Strabo, XI.XI.I). Indian sources also maintain religious contact between Buddhist monks and the Greeks, and some Greco-Bactrians did convert to Buddhism. Demetrius, son and successor of Euthydemus, invaded north-western India in 180 BC, after the destruction of the Mauryan empire there; the Mauryans were probably allies of the Bactrians (and Seleucids). The exact justification for the invasion remains unclear, but by about 175 BC, the Greeks ruled over parts of north-western India. This period also marks the beginning of the obfuscation of Greco-Bactrian history. Demetrius possibly died about 180 BC; numismatic evidence suggest the existence of several other kings shortly thereafter. It is probable that at this point that the Greco-Bactrian kingdom split into several semi-independent regions for some years, often warring amongst themselves. Heliocles was the last Greek to clearly rule Bactria, his power collapsing in the face of central Asian tribal invasions (Scythian and Yuezhi), by about 130 BCE. However, Greek urban civilisation seems to have continued in Bactria after the fall of the kingdom, having a hellenising effect on the tribes which had displaced Greek-rule. The Kushan empire which followed continued to use Greek on their coinage and Greeks continued being influential in the empire. | question: Who stated that the Greco-Bactrians had connections through the silk road?, answer: Strabo | question: When did Demetrius, son of Euthydemus invade north-western India?, answer: 180 BC | question: Whose death signifies the beginning of confusing documentation of Greco-Bactrian history?, answer: Demetrius | question: Who was the last Greek to clearly rule Bactria?, answer: Heliocles | 517 |

"The implicit meaning of a Quranic verse that is known fully only by God is which type of ta'wil?"
] | According to Tabatabaei, there are acceptable and unacceptable esoteric interpretations. Acceptable ta'wil refers to the meaning of a verse beyond its literal meaning; rather the implicit meaning, which ultimately is known only to God and can't be comprehended directly through human thought alone. The verses in question here refer to the human qualities of coming, going, sitting, satisfaction, anger and sorrow, which are apparently attributed to God. Unacceptable ta'wil is where one "transfers" the apparent meaning of a verse to a different meaning by means of a proof; this method is not without obvious inconsistencies. Although this unacceptable ta'wil has gained considerable acceptance, it is incorrect and cannot be applied to the Quranic verses. The correct interpretation is that reality a verse refers to. It is found in all verses, the decisive and the ambiguous alike; it is not a sort of a meaning of the word; it is a fact that is too sublime for words. God has dressed them with words to bring them a bit nearer to our minds; in this respect they are like proverbs that are used to create a picture in the mind, and thus help the hearer to clearly grasp the intended idea. | question: What are the two type of ta'wil?, answer: acceptable and unacceptable | question: Which type of esoteric interpretation involves a transfer by proof of a verse's meaning?, answer: Unacceptable | question: The implicit meaning of a Quranic verse that is known fully only by God is which type of ta'wil?, answer: Acceptable | 519 |

He concludes that "some people never reconcile themselves to such a loss at an early age, Madonna is not different than them." Conversely, author Lucy O'Brien feels the impact of the rape she suffered is, in fact, the motivating factor behind everything Madonna has done, more important even than the death of her mother: "It's not so much grief at her mother's death that drives her, as the sense of abandonment that left her unprotected. She encountered her own worst possible scenario, becoming a victim of male violence, and thereafter turned that full-tilt into her work, reversing the equation at every opportunity." | question: According to who was the defining moment of Madonna's childhood with her mother's death?, answer: Taraborrelli, | question: Which psychiatrist said that when a parent dies when the child is young, it leaves a lasting impact?, answer: Keith Ablow | question: Who believes that the rape Madonna experienced is the driving force in life?, answer: Lucy O'Brien | 520 |

Then they can grow to become productive adults and live longer, healthier lives. However, in poor countries like Bangladesh, working children are essential for survival in many families, as they were in our own heritage until the late 19th century. So, while the struggle to end child labour is necessary, getting there often requires taking different routes—and, sadly, there are many political obstacles. | question: Where is Thomas DeGregori from?, answer: University of Houston | question: What country does he argue needs child labor to survive?, answer: Bangladesh | question: What are the obstacles he claims are to ending child labor?, answer: political obstacles | 521 |

When The Beatles hit America, they changed the paradigm of performer from solo act to band. Madonna changed it back—with an emphasis on the female." Howard Kramer, curatorial director of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum, asserted that "Madonna and the career she carved out for herself made possible virtually every other female pop singer to follow ... She certainly raised the standards of all of them ... She redefined what the parameters were for female performers."

In China, the concept of Qi developed, a spirit or "wind" similar to what Western Europeans later called pneuma. Food was classified into "hot" (for example, meats, blood, ginger, and hot spices) and "cold" (green vegetables) in China, India, Malaya, and Persia. Humours developed perhaps first in China alongside qi. Ho the Physician concluded that diseases are caused by deficiencies of elements (Wu Xing: fire, water, earth, wood, and metal), and he classified diseases as well as prescribed diets. About the same time in Italy, Alcmaeon of Croton (a Greek) wrote of the importance of equilibrium between what goes in and what goes out, and warned that imbalance would result disease marked by obesity or emaciation. | question: In which time period did the study of nutrition begin?, answer: 6th century BC | question: What is the European equivalent of "Qi"?, answer: pneuma | question: What kind of food classification does ginger belong to?, answer: hot | question: What nationality was Alcmaeon of Croton?, answer: Greek | question: Other than obesity, what else would trademark an imbalance in nutrition?, answer: emaciation | 525 |

After haplogroup E1b1b, the second most frequently occurring Y-DNA haplogroup among Somalis is the West Asian haplogroup T (M70). It is observed in slightly more than 10% of Somali males.

In 1991, Mexican Americans, Puerto Ricans, and Cuban Americans made up 80% of the Latino population in the United States. Latinos are disadvantaged compared to White Americans and are more likely to live in poverty. They are the least well educated major ethnic group and suffered a 3% drop in high school completion rate while African Americans experienced a 12% increase between 1975-1990. In 1990, they constituted 9% of the population, but only received 3.1% of the bachelors's degrees awarded. At times when it is favorable to lawmakers, Latinos were considered "white" by the Jim Crow laws during the Reconstruction. In other cases, according to Paul Brest, Latinos have been classified as an inferior race and a threat to white purity. Latinos have encountered considerable discrimination in areas such as employment, housing, and education. Brest finds that stereotypes continue to be largely negative and many perceive Latinos as "lazy, unproductive, and on the dole." Furthermore, native-born Latino-Americans and recent immigrants are seen as identical since outsiders tend not to differentiate between Latino groups. | question: Who conducted a study about the origins of "Latinos"?, answer: Dr. Paul Brest | question: How much of the Latino population did Mexican Americans, Puerto Ricans and Cuban Americans make up in 1991?, answer: 80% | question: In relation to other major ethnic groups, what is the education level of Latinos?, answer: least well educated | question: What was the percentage increase of the high school completion rate for African Americans between 1975 and 1990?, answer: 12% | question: How many of the total bachelor degrees awarded in 1990 went to Latinos?, answer: 3.1% | 535 |

] | According to an autosomal DNA study by Hodgson et al. (2014), the Afro-Asiatic languages were likely spread across Africa and the Near East by an ancestral population(s) carrying a newly identified non-African genetic component, which the researchers dub the "Ethio-Somali". This Ethio-Somali component is today most common among Afro-Asiatic-speaking populations in the Horn of Africa. It reaches a frequency peak among ethnic Somalis, representing the majority of their ancestry. The Ethio-Somali component is most closely related to the Maghrebi non-African genetic component, and is believed to have diverged from all other non-African ancestries at least 23,000 years ago. On this basis, the researchers suggest that the original Ethio-Somali carrying population(s) probably arrived in the pre-agricultural period from the Near East, having crossed over into northeastern Africa via the Sinai Peninsula. The population then likely split into two branches, with one group heading westward toward the Maghreb and the other moving south into the Horn. | question: When did Hodgson publish his DNA study?, answer: 2014 | question: According to Hodgson, what ancestral people spread the Afro-Asiatic languages?, answer: Ethio-Somali | question: According to Hodgson, what people is mostly descended from Ethio-Somalis?, answer: Somalis | question: According to Hodgson, how long ago did the Ethio-Somalis diverge from other non-African ancestries?, answer: at least 23,000 years ago | question: According to Hodgson, where did the Ethio-Somalis originate?, answer: the Near East | 538 |

] | According to conservation of energy, energy can neither be created (produced) nor destroyed by itself. It can only be transformed. The total inflow of energy into a system must equal the total outflow of energy from the system, plus the change in the energy contained within the system. Energy is subject to a strict global conservation law; that is, whenever one measures (or calculates) the total energy of a system of particles whose interactions do not depend explicitly on time, it is found that the total energy of the system always remains constant. | question: According to what, energy can neither be created nor destroyed by itself?, answer: conservation of energy | question: The total inflow of energy into a system must equal what?, answer: total outflow of energy from the system, plus the change in the energy contained within the system | question: What can neither be created nor destroyed by itself; it can only be transformed?, answer: energy | 541 |

] | According to eastern homeland theory, prior to becoming known to the Roman world, Slavic-speaking tribes were part of the many multi-ethnic confederacies of Eurasia – such as the Sarmatian, Hun and Gothic empires. The Slavs emerged from obscurity when the westward movement of Germans in the 5th and 6th centuries CE (thought to be in conjunction with the movement of peoples from Siberia and Eastern Europe: Huns, and later Avars and Bulgars) started the great migration of the Slavs, who settled the lands abandoned by Germanic tribes fleeing the Huns and their allies: westward into the country between the Oder and the Elbe-Saale line; southward into Bohemia, Moravia, much of present-day Austria, the Pannonian plain and the Balkans; and northward along the upper Dnieper river.

However, in March 2011, CKPR announced that it had come to a programming agreement with the CBC, in which the station will continue to provide CBC programming in Thunder Bay for a period of five years.

Thus, a mixed marriage is forbidden as is the union of a horse and a donkey, and in both unions the offspring are judged matrilineally. Second, the Tannaim may have been influenced by Roman law, which dictated that when a parent could not contract a legal marriage, offspring would follow the mother. | question: Who believed the status of the offspring of mixed marriages was determined patrilineally in the Bible?, answer: Shaye J.

Beatrice transcribed and edited the diaries covering Victoria's accession onwards, and burned the originals in the process. Despite this destruction, much of the diaries still exist. In addition to Beatrice's edited copy, Lord Esher transcribed the volumes from 1832 to 1861 before Beatrice destroyed them.

The power that an antenna will deliver to a receiver (with a proper impedance match) is reduced by the same amount. In some receiving applications, the very inefficient antennas may have little impact on performance. At low frequencies, for example, atmospheric or man-made noise can mask antenna inefficiency. For example, CCIR Rep. 258-3 indicates man-made noise in a residential setting at 40 MHz is about 28 dB above the thermal noise floor. Consequently, an antenna with a 20 dB loss (due to inefficiency) would have little impact on system noise performance. The loss within the antenna will affect the intended signal and the noise/interference identically, leading to no reduction in signal to noise ratio (SNR). | question: What is the median level for measuring atmospheric noise?, answer: thermal noise floor | question: In what type of programs would low efficiency antennas not make a difference in effectiveness?, answer: receiving | question: At lesser frequencies what can account for incorrect assumptions about efficiency?, answer: man-made noise | question: What is SNR?, answer: signal to noise ratio | 554 |

Although the legislation prohibits interstate and foreign transactions for list species, no provisions are made for in-state commerce, allowing these animals to be sold to roadside zoos and private collectors. Additionally, the ESA allows listed species to be shipped across state lines as long as they are not sold. According to Green and the CPI, this allows dealers to "donate" listed species through supposed "breeding loans" to anyone, and in return they can legally receive a reciprocal monetary "donation" from the receiving party.

The French press and parliament demanded a war, which the generals of Napoleon III assured him that France would win. Napoleon and his Prime Minister, Émile Ollivier, for their parts sought war to solve their problems with political disunity in France. On 16 July 1870, the French parliament voted to declare war on the German Kingdom of Prussia and hostilities began three days later. The German coalition mobilised its troops much more quickly than the French and rapidly invaded northeastern France. The German forces were superior in numbers, had better training and leadership and made more effective use of modern technology, particularly railroads and artillery. | question: A dispatch was edited about a meeting between the French ambassador and what Prussian king?, answer: King William | question: What was the purpose of editing the dispatch?, answer: to make it appear that the French had been insulted | question: On which date did the French parliament vote to declare war on Prussia?, answer: 16 July 1870 | question: What diplomatic crisis was Bismarck credited with skillfully creating?, answer: succession to the Spanish throne | question: Where did the quickly mobilised troops first invade in France?, answer: northeastern France | 557 |

They were divided into two categories: one of them, the good "commoner" people, the other "mean" people. The majority of the population belonged to the first category and were described as liangmin, a legal term meaning good people, as opposed to jianmin meaning the mean (or ignoble) people. Qing law explicitly stated that the traditional four occupational groups of scholars, farmers, artisans and merchants were "good", or having a status of commoners. On the other hand, slaves or bondservants, entertainers (including prostitutes and actors), and those low-level employees of government officials were the "mean people". Mean people were considered legally inferior to commoners and suffered unequal treatments, forbidden to take the imperial examination. | question: How many estates were there in Qing society?, answer: five | question: What 2 groups were normal Chinese broken into?, answer: the good "commoner" people, the other "mean" people | question: What was the legal term for commoner?, answer: liangmin | 559 |

This is not surprising since the selective forces of climate are probably the primary forces of nature that have shaped human races with regard not only to skin color and hair form but also the underlying bony structures of the nose, cheekbones, etc. (For example, more prominent noses humidify air better.)" While he can see good arguments for both sides, the complete denial of the opposing evidence "seems to stem largely from socio-political motivation and not science at all". He also states that many biological anthropologists see races as real yet "not one introductory textbook of physical anthropology even presents that perspective as a possibility. In a case as flagrant as this, we are not dealing with science but rather with blatant, politically motivated censorship". | question: What group of anthropologists overwhelmingly support the idea of human races?, answer: forensic | question: What does George W.

Many are descendants of the Mapuche, and live in Santiago, Araucanía and the lake district. The Mapuche successfully fought off defeat in the first 300–350 years of Spanish rule during the Arauco War. Relations with the new Chilean Republic were good until the Chilean state decided to occupy their lands. During the Occupation of Araucanía the Mapuche surrendered to the country's army in the 1880s. Their land was opened to settlement by Chileans and Europeans. Conflict over Mapuche land rights continues to the present. | question: What is the name for the Polynesian people living on Easter Island?, answer: the Rapanui | question: What percent of the Chilean population were indigenous according to the 2002 census?, answer: 4.6% | question: Who are many of the people of Chile the descendants of?, answer: the Mapuche | question: How long were the Mapuche able to fight off the Spaniards?, answer: 350 years | question: When did the Mapuche surrender to the Chilean army?, answer: 1880s | 561 |

] | According to the American National Standards Institute, pitch is the auditory attribute of sound according to which sounds can be ordered on a scale from low to high. Since pitch is such a close proxy for frequency, it is almost entirely determined by how quickly the sound wave is making the air vibrate and has almost nothing to do with the intensity, or amplitude, of the wave. That is, "high" pitch means very rapid oscillation, and "low" pitch corresponds to slower oscillation. Despite that, the idiom relating vertical height to sound pitch is shared by most languages. At least in English, it is just one of many deep conceptual metaphors that involve up/down. The exact etymological history of the musical sense of high and low pitch is still unclear. There is evidence that humans do actually perceive that the source of a sound is slightly higher or lower in vertical space when the sound frequency is increased or decreased. | question: Pitch is the auditory attribute to what?, answer: sound | question: Pitch is a close proxy for what?, answer: frequency | question: High pitch is what type of oscillation?, answer: rapid | question: Low pitch is what type of oscillation?, answer: slower | 568 |

"Based on the above definition, materialism is not consistent with what?"
] | According to the Catholic Encyclopedia of 1907-1912, materialism, defined as "a philosophical system which regards matter as the only reality in the world [...] denies the existence of God and the soul". Materialism, in this view, therefore becomes incompatible with most world religions, including Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. In such a context one can conflate materialism with atheism. Most of Hinduism and transcendentalism regards all matter as an illusion called Maya, blinding humans from knowing "the truth". Maya is the limited, purely physical and mental reality in which our everyday consciousness has become entangled. Maya gets destroyed for a person when s/he perceives Brahman with transcendental knowledge. | question: Based on the above definition, materialism is not consistent with what?, answer: religions | 570 |

] | According to the Omnipotence paradox or 'Paradox of the Stone', can God create a stone so heavy that he cannot lift it? Either he can or he can’t. If he can’t, the argument goes, then there is something that he cannot do, namely create the stone, and therefore he is not omnipotent. If he can, it continues, then there is also something that he cannot do, namely lift the stone, and therefore he is not omnipotent. Either way, then, God is not omnipotent. A being that is not omnipotent, though, is not God, according to many theological models. Such a God, therefore, does not exist. Several answers to this paradox have been proposed. | question: What is the Omnipotence paradox?, answer: can God create a stone so heavy that he cannot lift it | question: What is another term for the Omnipotence paradox?, answer: Paradox of the Stone | question: Does either outcome of the Paradox of the Stone prove the existence of God?, answer: God is not omnipotent.
