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.
Positive Example 1 -
Input: Sent1: Many social conservatives argue that benefits are provided to married couples because, in turn, married couples benefit society.
Sent2: We give married couples marriage benefits TO STRENGTHEN the marriage, because marriage STRENGTHENS society.
Output: Similar
Positive Example 2 -
Input: Sent1: A civil partnership between two homosexual men or two lesbian women should be called a homosexual civil partnership.
Sent2: Marriage is by definition between a man and a woman, and no one else, and the states interest is in a procreative type relationship, a gay couple does not entitle to these benefits.
Output: Not similar
Negative Example 1 -
Input: Sent1: So I must ask you why exactly are you against same sex marriage when it has been shown that the ban on same sex marriage is just like the ban on interracial couples getting married?
Sent2: I can only assume because you don't want to admit that perversion of marriage will rise out of same gender marriage.
Output: Similar
Now complete the following example -
Input: Sent1: God says a marriage is between a man and a woman.
Sent2: My problem with that statement, though, is that the bible makes references where it says that a marrige is to be strictly between only one man and one woman.

Positive Example 2 -

Sent2: I can only assume because you don't want to admit that perversion of marriage will rise out of same gender marriage.
Output: Similar
Now complete the following example -
Input: Sent1: I wouldnt mind letting religion have the word marriage and the government have civil unions to where both straight and gay couples have civil unions and if you want to go to a church to get married then you can.
Sent2: I don't particularly care for the idea of "civil unions" because it forms a "separate, but equal" marriage system, that will only lead to continued discrimination.
