A quite nuanced mistranslation occurs in the Bible, Leviticus 18:22. This is the passage telling Christians "a man shall not lie with another man as he does a woman; that would be an abomination." However, a closer look at the context shows that this passage is actually warning, not against homosexuality, but what?

A man is caught on the king’s property. He is brought before the king to be punished. The king says, “You must give me a statement. If it is true, you will be killed by lions. If it is false, you will be killed by trampling of wild buffalo. If I can’t figure it out, I’ll have to let you go.” What should he say?
"I will be killed by trampling of wild buffalo.” This stumped the king because if it’s true, he’ll be killed by lions, which would render the statement not true. If it’s a lie, he’d be killed by wild buffalo, which would make it a truth.

You have two ropes that each take an hour to burn, but burn at inconsistent rates. How can you measure 45 minutes? (You can light one or both ropes at one or both ends at the same time.)
Light the first rope at both ends to measure out 30 minutes and just one end of the second rope. When the first rope has finished burning burn the second end of the second rope. Since the first rope is burned through, you know 30 minutes has passed so the second rope only has 30 minutes left. Cut that in half to get 15 minutes and then once it has burned youve spent 45 minutes.
