<\/p>\nMy last analogy got some terrible reviews …<\/p>\n
And for good reason.<\/p>\n
So,<\/p>\n
Let’s try this one on for size.<\/p>\n
Hopefully it’s a wee bit better !! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Say we’ve got a glass bottle of Coca-Cola …<\/p>\n
It looks like this:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We can tell it’s Coke because we recognize the shape and form of the bottle,<\/p>\n
And since it’s in a glass bottle,<\/p>\n
We can see what’s inside the bottle and recognize that it looks like Coca-Cola.<\/p>\n
Now let’s say …<\/p>\n
We have another bottle of soda,<\/p>\n
This time,<\/p>\n
Fanta Orange.<\/p>\n
It looks like this:<\/p>\n
![\"Fanta.jpg\"](\"http:\/\/amynews.com\/Blog\/archives\/Fanta.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
We can tell it’s Fanta Orange because it says FANTA on the side,<\/p>\n
And since it’s also in a glass bottle,<\/p>\n
We can see inside that it looks orange and reasonably conclude it’s Fanta Orange.<\/p>\n
Bottle 1 – Coke.<\/p>\n
Bottle 2 – Fanta Orange.<\/p>\n
Simple, right?<\/p>\n
Now let’s say …<\/p>\n
That during the bottling process,<\/p>\n
Some Fanta Orange was put in a Coca-Cola bottle.<\/p>\n
Here’s my question …<\/p>\n
Would a Coke bottle with the Fanta Orange inside be …<\/p>\n
A bottle of Coke or a bottle of Fanta Orange?<\/i><\/p>\n
Now me …<\/p>\n
I tend to think that what’s inside the bottle is what counts.<\/p>\n
So I’d say a Coca-Cola bottle with Fanta Orange on the inside is a bottle of Fanta Orange,<\/p>\n
And can be just as satisfying as a bottle of Fanta Orange which was always in a Fanta Orange bottle.<\/p>\n
But that’s just me,<\/p>\n
I’m probably biased. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Though unless a person is choosing to be a hypocrit,<\/p>\n
There are some people out there that will argue …<\/p>\n
Vehemently,<\/p>\n
Passionately, and …<\/p>\n
While quoting their interpretation of religious source,<\/p>\n
That what’s inside the bottle doesn’t matter.<\/p>\n
If it’s in a Coke bottle,<\/p>\n
It’s Coke.<\/p>\n
No ifs, ands, or butts. (That’s an intentional misspelling kids. :))<\/p>\n
Understanding my transsexualism is pretty much as simple as that …<\/p>\n
If you believe the original bottle determines whether it’s Coke or not,<\/p>\n
You’ll never get me.<\/p>\n
If you believe it is what’s inside that makes the difference,<\/p>\n
Well, you still might never get me,<\/p>\n
But you’ve got a much better chance of it ! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
And just for the record …<\/p>\n
I think being Fanta Orange rocks. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
