Can you give me examples?
 
I must say that I am allergic to putting labels on people. I hate having put a label on myself, and so think that others would not like that either. I think that there is far more to people than what we may see. And in the west we are so fond of classifying that we forget that.
 
much love,

Most of the socially constructed Baha'i paradigms ("Baha'i faiths") I am referring to are not theological or ideological (thought there are some). They are formulated around subcultures of engagement, i.e., methodologies or epistemologies.
