Assuming you believe in souls and reincarnation, of course.
I read recently that a fundamentalist of any religion is a young soul. They have not evolved enough to question and reason with logic. No offense intended, but I agree.
Whereas skeptics are most likely older souls who challenge our beliefs and our minds, which is a good thing.

Interesting comments.
Acid_Zebra is see your point. So it is snobbish to assume that an old soul is somehow superior.
How did the first souls survive? Well, they would have been the neaderthal types, right?

Old souls can be recognized by their wisdoms.
Although there are old souls that have not really grown up yet because they still have not evolve from the cycle of birth, death and rebirth and still in the league of the fundamentalists who stayed so attached to the Old Teachings.
Skeptics too can have a young soul who wanted to get out of the viscious cycle early thus the reason for their unquenching thirst for new ideas or knowledge. Most young souls can be found among the remote and primitve areas and people whose emotions are found to be abrasive, agressive and hasty and irrationals. People who live in phobias, fear, hatred and anger can be from Old souls whose experiences were violent or catastrophic.
Most Old Souls can be found on many activists organizations who fight against environmental pollutions, against wars and against organized religions but believe in human struggle for righteousness and peace. You are quite correct.

The opposite of a fundamentalist is not a skeptic (who is also a young soul) but rather a tolerant person (old soul). The skeptics need the fundamentalists, or else whom would they push against? The tolerant among us observe all the challenging behavior with nostalgia and gentle amusement.

i think of particularly some that's self assurance appropriate - basically peoples' very own theory of their very own skills is greater or decrease in each and every case - plus different stuff gets interior the way, which includes alcohol, drugs, intercourse etc, that are all particularly distracting of their very own way and a few human beings get addicted or basically preoccupied via those issues. To be truthful, i think of that television is powerful up there with the three I basically reported: it is basically yet another style of fix which persons use to steer away from fairly residing. Yahoo! solutions probable additionally - whether a minimum of Y!/A is interactive and makes some demands upon us. some human beings could be lazy! Am I allowed to assert that?? I agree that intelligence and age probable are not the severe factors and a few everybody is basically greater inspired than others. I fall someplace interior the midst of all this because of the fact i'm inspired via studying with out being quite formidable - on an identical time as many persons, some youthful than me, will overtake me because of the fact they have an overpowering opt to make it to the precise of the tree.

My grandma used to call anyone with a quiet, deep thoughtful nature an old soul. Much like the saying "still waters run deep". Of course we could argue that this type of person is simply highly introverted.
See, I just over think things sometimes. Ignore my babel.

I used to believe in reincarnation...actually I used to be a member of Sylvia Browne's religion called the Society of Novus Spiritus...but then I got wise. Reincarnation doesn't exist. One shot, one life...better make the best of it and choose the right path.
I think it's nothing more than a skeptics excuse to believe that they are more advanced. It doesn't take a lot of brains to be skeptical of things...anyone can question everything they encounter and never trust anything however it takes a lot of trust to believe in the unseen...a lot of faith.

"question and reason with logic"
hmmm, you'd wonder how young souls ever survived. How did the very first souls survive?
Also, couldn't anyone with moderate or above intelligence then be considered an old soul? Does that seem correct?

Now that is some funny stuff!
Young soul = childish ideas.
Old soul = skepticism about everything.
Brilliant!

Hmm...by that logic then Atheists are the oldest souls because they are the most skeptical.
