I am composing a list of trivia questions to use for a \u201cgame night\u201d theme for our middle school youth group tomorrow. There are a million questions to ask, of course, but as I consider the contestants, I would love to \u201cskew\u201d the game so that it is thought-provoking rather than trying to trip them up.

Thanks so much!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
