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: The fact that it is impractical to offer the benefits of marriage across many people is really far more important than the inequality, since the inequality would only be helping some families while hurting no others.
 Sent2: 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.

SOLUTION: Not similar

PROBLEM: Sent1: If civil unions do not provide the same benefits and protections as marriage, then civil unions are clearly not equal to marriage, and again, gay people are being treated as less-than-equal citizens.
 Sent2: Gay people aren't going to accept "separate but equal" civil unions, and heterosexual people aren't going to want to allow gay people to have civil marriages.

SOLUTION: Not similar

PROBLEM: Sent1: You: You left out that gay marriage is legalized by legislatures.
 Sent2: Banning gay marriage is not against the constitution and how is banning it "enforcing religion" besides your a Christian aren't you?

SOLUTION:
Not similar
