I live in a town that was founded by the Spanish in the 16th century and is proud of its Spanish heritage (well, now it is - after the Florida became a state and entered the Union, Andrew Jackson was sent to “de-hispanify” it and one of the things he did was suppress religious processions in places like Tallahassee, etc.).
Liturgists hate Spain. They love “Hispanics,” however, because the latter are generally lower-income, poorly educated folks and it’s very easy for the average upper middle class Anglo liturgist to condescend to them. She can feel she’s doing them a great favor by giving them some garbagy Marty Haugen-clone in pidgin Spanish to sing and then inflicting it on the rest of the congregation too.
Spain, on the other hand, represents orthodoxy and intellect, and that’s something that makes liturgists flee like mice from a Viking kitty.
