Not quite. The conversos were forced to "convert" to Catholicism on penalty of death by torture. Those who were able to maintain their Judaism had to do so secretly. I don't think you can blame people for pretending to play along when the alternative is the killing of yourself and your family.
"The conversos were forced to "convert" to Catholicism on penalty of death by torture."
I've heard that asserted, but never credibly.
I have no doubt that you sincerely believe it, but I don't.
You have a source for that? My understanding is that conversos were Catholics suspected of being practicing Jews, or "false conversions."
