Some, but not all, conversos had understandably chosen to salvage their social and commercial positions or their lives by the only option open to them – baptism and embrace of Christianity – while privately adhering to their Jewish practice and faith.
Neki, ali ne svi conversos su razumljivo odlučili spasiti svoj društveni i trgovački ugled na jedini način otvoren za njih - krštenjem i prihvaćanjem kršćanstva - dok su privatno i dalje obnašali obveze židovske vjere.
