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: In a free society, the government does not deny rights or benefits to its people without a good reason; it does not deny those rights and benefits unless they are harmful.
Sent2: If two people cannot do this for some legal reason, they are being denied equal rights unless marriage is completely outlawed within that nation.

SOLUTION: Similar

PROBLEM: Sent1: If inclusion of same sex couples being allowed to marry is what you call "redefining", then the inclusion of interracial couples would also be a "redefiniton."
Sent2: If same sex "marriage" and not civil unions are allowed, then precedence will have been set for redefining marriage.

SOLUTION: Not similar

PROBLEM: Sent1: It does hurt someone it hurts the people who are married and believe that marriage is and always will be defined as a man and women.
Sent2: Gay marriage is wrong the reason is because in every definition of marriage it includes man and woman not man and man or women and women it is women and man.
