> Spain is exceptionally liberal on LGBT issues while remaining more religious than some northern countries

When you move here, "more religious" turns out to pretty much be window dressing. Yes, they still celebrate a bunch of the old catholic holidays, parading saints around on feast days, but apart from a handful of older folks, nobody actually believes.

Particularly when compared to the US, where a large minority is still going around loudly thumping bibles, Spain is a very secular country.

You are conflating two concepts into one words, immigration and illegal immigration are not the same thing
