You just died and you reach a path. The path splits off in to 2 sides where 2 identical looking angels stand guard. 1 path leads to heaven and one path leads to hell. You want to get to heaven but you don't know which path is the correct one to heaven.
You are allowed to ask only 1 question to only 1 of the angels in order to figure out which path will lead you to heaven, the right one or left one.
Now the catch...One angel ALWAYS tells the TRUTH while the other angel ALWAYS LIES whenever answering you. (ex: if you ask them What light means "go" when driving, the truth angel will say "green" while the other angel will say "red", which is the opposite of the corret answer)
#2 catch:You do not know which angel is which. Remember they look identical so you don't know if the angel you are talking to is the TRUTH or LIAR angel.
With all this, what is the 1 question you can ask that would allow you to figure out which way is heaven? No Magic, use LOGIC! There is an answer!

you have to figure out in one question...
-which way is heaven
-which angel is the liar/truthful one so then you figure out the above.
Again, use LOGIC! one person is REALLY close to the answer...but still need the second part on "what do u do after u ask the question, why did u ask the question"

I would ask, "What would the other angel say about your pathway? to each of them. One would say, "He would say that my pathway leads to Hell," (which is the truth, otherwise if he were lying, then the other angel would be the truth teller, and lier would not say that that would be what the other would say, becuase that would be the telling the truth) and then the other would say, "He would say me pathway leads to heaven." (which is a lie, becuase if he were the truth teller, the other angel would be the lyer, and the lyer would not say that other's led to heaven, otherwise, he would be telling the truth)So, the angel that said, "He would say that my pathway lead to Hell," Is the path that leads to heaven.

Guard 1: It's in the rules. And you should know that one of us always tells the truth, and one of us always lies. That's a rule too, he (pointing at Guard 3) always lies.
Guard 3: I do not! I tell the truth!
Guard 1: Oh what a lie!
Guard 2: (Laughs)
Guard 3: He's the liar.
Sarah: (walks over to Guard 3) All right. Answer yes or no. Would he (pointing at Guard 1) tellm e that this door leads to the castle?
Guard 3: Uh…(to Guard 4) What do you think? Really? (to Sarah) Yes.
Sarah: Then the other door leads to the castle and this door leads to certain death.
Guard 3: How do you know? He could be telling the truth.
Sarah: But then you wouldn't be. So if you said yes, the answer is no.
Guard 3: But, I could be telling the truth.
Sarah: Then he would be lying. So if you told me that he said yes, the answer would still be no.
Guard 3: Is that right?
Guard 1: I don't know. I've never understood it.
Sarah: No, it's right. I've figured it out. I could never do it before, I think I'm getting smarter. It's a piece of cake. (Walks through the door she picked and almost immediately falls through a trap door into the Helping Hand tunnel.)

Ask one which light means "go" when driving. If he answers green, you found the angel that leads to Heaven because he won't lie. If he answers "red" it is the Hell angel, because a Godly angel wouldn't lie.

it depends...the promt never states that the truthful angel is the one twords heaven, but if it was, ask a simple question like 1+1 or somthing, then youll know, but if your not ure which angel leads where, for example the truthful one leads to hell, then youll have to ask a complex question...such a question to figure this out would have to be figured out by albert einstien himself

If I asked the other angel, which path would he indicate
leads to heaven?" Take the path opposite to what's indicated!
Regardless of whom you ask, they'll point to the wrong door.

Question: now each angel is standing in front of a path? Or are they standing together in front of both paths?

where would the other angle say is the path to heaven
this way the angle who tells the truth will tell you that the lying angle will send you to hell
and the lying angle will tell you the path of hell because the truth angle will tell you the right way but since this one can only lie he tells you the wrong path.
whoever you ask this q to choose the other road than what they say

Pick one anyone and ask "If I ask the other one which path to heaven, what would he tell me?"
Now just go the opposite

Ask one of the angels if both angels lie, if the angel says no that angel is telling the truth, if the angel says yes that angel is the lair.
