Hi, I am able to make some nice drawing.Great! I have 2 grouped objects I want to superpose, but without the transparence. I want to overlap it (like a normal ms paint program would) .

I'm not entirely clear on exactly what you want to do. If you have two objects with their opacity set to zero, you should be able to overlap them just as in any paint program.
my objects are a newspaper and a pen.I want to set the pen on the newspaper I have drawn both objects using paths,colors , etc and to make 2 single objects I grouped together all paths...
If I set opacity to 0 my objects become invisible.
(Also check the Fill&Stroke dialog box (Ctrl-Shift-F) for each object and make sure their alpha channel (the A slider) is set to 100 as well). You can control the transparency of the object both by it's alpha channel and by it's overall opacity.
same things is happening : object become invisible
I think what he meant was 100% opacity (= no transparency)
If you are trying to join the two objects (and make them one single object) you can also overlap them, then select them both and choose Path->Union if they are both path objects.
Yes, but it tells me object is not a path (this is a group)
Of course, since you made a group. But you will not have to, since 'unioning' a newspaper and a pen won't make any sense.
Try 100% opacity instead.
