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: As with same-sex marriage, I believe that many of the arguments used to support gay rights can be used to support incestual marriage.
 Sent2: However, some arguments in support of same-sex marriage have nothing to do with polygamous marriage.

SOLUTION: Not similar

PROBLEM: Sent1: The questions should really be "Is marriage a civil right"?
 Sent2: But the question of whether inter-racial marriages must be recognized by law and whether same-sex marriages must be recognized by law are still different questions, and each must be evaluated on its own merits.

SOLUTION: Not similar

PROBLEM: Sent1: We give married couples marriage benefits TO STRENGTHEN the marriage, because marriage STRENGTHENS society.
 Sent2: I believe that marriage is about commitment and that the government should therefore grant the benefits of marriage to every committed couple.

SOLUTION:
Not similar
