TASK DEFINITION: We would like you to classify each of the following sets of argument pairs (discussing Gay Marriage)  into either SIMILAR or NOT SIMILAR. A pair of arguments is considered SIMILAR if the arguments are about the same FACET (making the same argument), and is considered NOT SIMILAR if they do not have the same FACET. A FACET is a low level issue that often reoccurs in many arguments in support of the author's stance or in attacking the other author's position.
PROBLEM: Sent1: A point I have made in the past is that the same legal arguments folks are advancing in the courts to have same-sex marriage recognized could quite possibly also apply to people who would seek to have polygamous marriages recognized.
 Sent2: Therefore as I said using traditional marriage as an argument against same-sex marriage is just like using traditional marriage as an argument against interracial marriage.

SOLUTION: Not similar

PROBLEM: Sent1: Remember that people who are not straight currently get married just for the benefits, and people who do not love each other currently get married just for the benefits.
 Sent2: marriage is simply two people who love each other expressing that love and making a commitment, so why can't a man and a man or a woman and a woman who are in love make a commitment?

SOLUTION: Not similar

PROBLEM: Sent1: Candian society is very accepting of gay people and has instituted equal marriage for same-sex couples.
 Sent2: The opponents of same-sex marriage refuse to allow gay people to be treated as equals.

SOLUTION:
Not similar
