I am way out of touch with this stuff. I do not know how things like this happen! It is all very strange to me that this album “Bible Belt Baby” made it into consideration at the Grammy Awards for Best Contemporary Christian Album!
From ChurchLeaders:
Dale Chamberlain reports:
The Recording Academy has removed drag queen Flamy Grant’s album “Bible Belt Baby” from consideration for Best Contemporary Christian Album at this year’s Grammy Awards. The album has instead been moved over to the Pop category.
While it may seem strange that the Recording Academy, a nonreligious entity, can make the determination as to what constitutes Christian music, it is worth noting that many of the lyrics in Grant’s songs contain expletives—something that is absent from all other Christian works being considered.

Got Questions states: Deuteronomy 22:5 deals with the issue cross-dressing / transvestism (men dressing in women’s clothing and vice versa). In this passage God commands that a woman is not to wear that which pertains to a man and a man is not to wear that which pertains to a woman, for all that do so are an “abomination.” The Hebrew word translated “abomination” means “a disgusting thing, abominable, in the ritual sense (of unclean food, idols, mixed marriages), in the ethical sense of wickedness.”
