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: And by the way I know a lot of folks who have no issues with gays, gay couples, gay parents, etc. that oppose gay marriage.
 Sent2: I know many gay couples who have adopted children and are loving parents.

SOLUTION: Not similar

PROBLEM: Sent1: True, the courts have ruled that denying gay people the right to marry is a violation of their human rights.
 Sent2: Gay rights advocates argued the state was violating their civil rights by limiting marriage to opposite-sex couples.

SOLUTION: Similar

PROBLEM: Sent1: The government is not in the business of telling us why we marry someone, whether it is out of love or for some other reason.
 Sent2: We don't necessarily have a right to officially recognized gay marriage, but we have every right to tell the government if we want it or not.

SOLUTION:
Not similar
