A dying man is kept in a room with two guardians. The room has two doors, one to
heaven, and the other to hell. The dying man knows this, but he does
not know which door is which. He also knows that one of the guardians is always telling the truth, and that the other always tells lies, but he does not know
which guardian is the truth-teller and which is the liar. He is allowed to ask just
ONE question of one of the guardians: he may choose which guardian to ask, and he
may decide what question to ask. (Both guardians know which door is which,
and each knows the other's lying or truthful disposition.) What single
question can the dying man ask in order to find out for certain which door
leads to heaven?

Yes. You simply have to ask a question where a lie has to be involved and then you know you have an incorrect answer. That's why you ask one guardian about what the other would tell you. You then know there is a lie there for sure even if you don't know which guardian lied.
