don_salvy: I would ask 'if I were 2 ask u if this is the way 2 heaven, would u say yes?' With that question, it it were 2 be d thruthful angel, I would knw where 2 go, but if it were 2 be d lying angel, he would definitely lie, thereby believing d opposite of whatever answer he gvz.

but you won't still know now, since you do not know the truthful angel, how would you know the lying angel is lying?

Pastor Olu T: If you know you possess the intellectual skills to unravel mysteries, then you are in the right place. I will really want to see atheists (Logicboy n co) here 'cos they claim to get it all together! Now to the puzzle;

Supposing you suddenly meet yourself at a junction of two roads, one leading to life, enjoyment with all the goodies of life, and one leading to death, destruction and a dead, but you dont know which is which. Also at the start of each roads stood two angels/men, one for each roads. One of the angel/man always say the truth no matter what, while the the other is the opposite, always lying, but you also dont know which is which.

And its a must you take one of the roads, but you are only entitled to ask one of the angels/men ONLY ONE QUESTION, but dont know their true identities.

This is the mystery, WHAT WOULD YOUR QUESTION BE, remember just only one which is irreversible?

My question would be: Does God exist?

1. The lying angel which will definitely lie will say NO

2. The truthful angel which will definitely tell the truth will say YES

3. I do know God exists.

So the angel that tells me No is the lying angel, or if the angel tells me yes, then he is the truthful angel.

This is the Question I will ask any of the Angel, whether life or death.
"By the power and authority bestowed on me, In thy name of JESUS CHRIST, I command you to confess yourself. WHO ARE YOU?"

Ask one of the angel an obvious question with an obvious truth as the answer, for example "Is Jesus the son of God?"
The lying angel will say no while the angel saying the truth will reply with a Yes....

Re: Brain Teaser; Lets See How Intelligent You Are? by Balyz: 10:52pm On Dec 24, 2013
The answer to the riddle is simple and straightforward, I would first point to either road and ask them one single question: 'if i asked you before, would you have said that this is the road leading to life'? Putting the question in past tense is what does the trick. If I am pointing at the road of life and asked the question of either the angel or the devil, he would have to answer "yes". If I were pointing at the road of destruction, either one of them will have to give me "no" answer.
It's simple; assuming I had been pointing at the road of life, the angel would have answered my question with a "yes" before, therefore his answer is "yes" now. The devil on the other hand, who always lies is the guy whose answer i must scrutinize a little more closely(cos he's a liar anyway). If I had pointed to the road of life originally, he would have lied, and said "no" abi? I am asking him(the devil) if he would have said it was the road that leads to life, well he wouldn't have said "yes", so being the liar that he is, he must lie again and say "yes" he would have. You following? Therefore I would have obtained a "yes" answer from either man, and naturally taken the road I was pointing to(since it's the road that leads to life) when I asked my question.
Now assuming I was pointing to the road of destruction: the angel would have answered my question with a"no" before, so because he must tell the truth at all times, he must say "no" again. The devil on the other hand would have lied before; he would have said "yes" when I pointed towards the road of destruction. Since he would have said "yes" before, and I am asking him if he would have said "yes" he must lie, and answer "no". So I will get a "no" answer from either one of them and take the other road to LIFE.
So Una see as I take get sense pass all una grin

It is impossible to solve the riddle by directing your only one question at only one of them. I dare the OP to prove otherwise

Google63: I'll ask any of them this question... If I had asked you earlier what road would you have told me leads to heaven. The good angel will always say the truth, and the lying angel's word would counter the other, cos he would av lied earlier, and then he would still lie again, this would make it positive. I'll then go with whatever road any of them says

Just one of them is entitled to talk, so there won't be any conflicting answer. And there won't be any lying again!

The angel that fails the question with an obvious answer is the lying angel, if he gets it then he is the truthful angel, so how would I have exhausted without knowing the way to take?

Pastor you have every right to say so just so long as you haven't provided the correct answer to the riddle yourself (that's assuming you even know the correct answer) . And for your information, I've read the entire riddle again and again, and im sure I've arrived at the correct answer. With all the other so called solutions, you offered reasons as to why they were wrong, but you reserved only a 2 liner for my 30 liner, fully thought through solution; why is that? Follow my solution point to point and point out where i went wrong, proffer your own solution or admit it. Na me still get sense pass sha grin
