M. Schroeder English Composition 101 November 23, 2016 Module 5: Persuasive Argument Blog Post #5: Topic/Thesis/Outline Is the God of Christianity OK With Gay? Topic: For many groups equality is an ongoing issue throughout the world. Examining the root behind the reasons used to hold on to inequality can help to understand why the prejudice exists and hinders a group’s attainment of equality.
