instruction:
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.
question:
Sent1: I think you're getting off course here and playing semantic games--the point I was making was that people haven't said THEIR marriages will be affected by gay marriage, at least from what I've seen.
Sent2: You know, if you aren't able to grasp the concept of the inconsistency of saying one is against gay marriage when saying they are for gay rights, I don't know what else to say.
answer:
Not similar

question:
Sent1: Yet marriage is not that commitment, according to you; if it were about commitment, the government would be allowing same-sex marriage.
Sent2: So you are right that a state law legalizing same-sex marriage does not give people the right to marry someone of foreign nationality of the same sex in order to give them U.S. citizenship.
answer:
Not similar

question:
Sent1: I don't mean to demonize those relationships, though I do mean to say that they are part of something which could be considered harmful, while same-sex couples are not.
Sent2: I mean, I can't think of any good analogy for denying same-sex marriage.
answer:
Not similar
