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: So if I belong to a faith that allows for same sex marriage, should the constitution have the right to ban it even if the constitution protects my faith in the freedom to practice it?
 Sent2: If opposite-sex couples have marriage under the law, but same-sex couples do not, my religion is under attack.

SOLUTION: Similar

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: Candian society is very accepting of gay people and has instituted equal marriage for same-sex couples.
 Sent2: Nothing would prevent straight couples from the exact same marriage whether gay people can marry or not.

SOLUTION:
Not similar
