da moon?ok wat abt dese?....You approach two talking doors. One door leads to the City of Truth, while the other door leads to the City of Liars. You do not know which door is which. You are able to ask only one question to determine which door is which. The door that leads to the City of Liars always speaks lies, while the door that leads to the City of Truth always speaks the truth. You want to go to the City of Truth. What question do you ask to determine which door leads to the City of Truth?and....It's more powerful than God.It's more evil than the devil.The poor have it.The rich need it.If you eat it, you'll die.What am I?

a humanYou approach two talking doors. One door leads to the City of Truth, while the other door leads to the City of Liars. You do not know which door is which. You are able to ask only one question to determine which door is which. The door that leads to the City of Liars always speaks lies, while the door that leads to the City of Truth always speaks the truth. You want to go to the City of Truth. What question do you ask to determine which door leads to the City of Truth?Answer: Ask either door, "If I were to ask the other door which door leads to the City of Truth, what would he say?"If you're talking to the truth door then he'll tell you the wrong door, b/c that is what the other door would tell you, and if you asked the lying door, he would lie and tell you the wrong door also. So just choose the door that they don't pick.Answer: If you failed at failing to succeed, then you've obviously succeeded at succeeding.My Riddle: What walks on four legs in the morning, two legs in the afternoon, and three legs in the evening?

That didn't make sense...You approach two talking doors. One door leads to the City of Truth, while the other door leads to the City of Liars. You do not know which door is which. You are able to ask only one question to determine which door is which. The door that leads to the City of Liars always speaks lies, while the door that leads to the City of Truth always speaks the truth. You want to go to the City of Truth. What question do you ask to determine which door leads to the City of Truth?Answer: Ask either door, "If I were to ask the other door which door leads to the City of Truth, what would he say?"If you're talking to the truth door then he'll tell you the wrong door, b/c that is what the other door would tell you, and if you asked the lying door, he would lie and tell you the wrong door also. So just choose the door that they don't pick.
My method:Go to one of the doors and ask what color shirt you're wearing (or some equally obvious question.) One will obviously tell you the right answer, and one will tell you the wrong answer. The one that answers correctly is the right door.
