Mr Noone is back from his little trip (see “Mr Noone and the bears“).
He was walking home from his office, when a giant truck came out of nowhere and completely crush him into a wall. (What a dreadful end!)
When Mr Noone regains consciousness, he notices he is on a path, in a world like he has never seen before. And a voice in his head tells him to keep following the path. He starts his journey, but quickly reach a fork in the path.
He notices both ways leads to a gate. One is black, and the other is white. And there is one angel guarding each way. A white angel stands in front of the black gate, and a black one is in front of the white gate.
The voice in his head tells him he is actually in the purgatory, and since no one can decide if he should go to heaven or burn in hell, they decided to set a little trial. One of the gate leads to heaven, while the other leads to hell. And one of the angel always tells the truth, while the other always lie. Knowing this, he can ask only one question to only one of the angels. The only problem being that Mr Noone doesn’t know which angel is lying.
Of course, both angels know about the gates. However, Mr Noone cannot ask double questions (like “what’s the color of the gate behing you, and by the way, which gate should I use to go to heaven?”)
So… if you where Mr Noone, what would you ask?
