Brooklyn Bishop Robert Brennan is “appalled” that a church there was used to shoot a provocative music video, the diocese said this week, with the prelate set to investigate why the more-than-100-year-old parish permitted the controversial video to be recorded on its property.

A newly released music video by pop musician Sabrina Carpenter showed the American-born singer dancing provocatively on the altar at the historic 19th-century Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary Church in Brooklyn.

The Oct. 31 music video of the song “Feather,” which has amassed more than 2 million views on YouTube, included scenes shot both inside and outside the church. Carpenter appeared at one point in the video with no pants while profane decorations lay atop and around the altar.

The video depicted several men fighting over the singer and eventually killing each other over her; their funeral coffins appear to end up in the Catholic church in the video.

That is why the Church is in her current corrupt and degenerate condition - because its pastors cannot tell the different between an altar consecrated to the offering of the Eucharistic Sacrifice, and a venue for a secular (and morally dodgy) show.

And they imagine that they will be respected.

The clergy are the worst enemies of the Church, and always have been - almost all heresies, schisms, satanic Masses, clerical predation, ecclesiastical luxury, pluralism, clerical concubinage, clerical ignorance, clerical worldliness, clerical careerism, all these abominations come from them. The rot always begins at the top - and those at the top are always exempted from having to take responsibility for the harm they cause.

This is why I avoid pop music at all costs, and go for for old-school future house music, which originated in Europe in 2013. No music videos, just rolling synths and detuned staccato bass. But yeah, music has been going downhill for decades, and it gets raunchier by the years. To avoid that stuff, it is best to stick to small underground folk or indie artists, or dance artists. Or even better, Christian artists.

The song below was made by a 16 year-old at the time of release (October 7th, 2015), and has no lyrics and no music video.
