“So half of modern Spain having Jewish neshamos is fine with you”

No it isnt “fine”

Apporoximatly 50,000 jews were baptized during the inquisition out of a population of 1,000,000. Assuming they all mixed freely, if a person’s great-great -great grandmoteher was one of those 25,000 women (assuming 50/50 split) he is Jewish if it is one of the 475,000 non-jewish women he is not Jewish. No other Ancestor matters other than that one mother’s mother’s mother’ mother etc going back aproximatly 17 generations. 2 to the power of 17 is 131,072 out of all those acestors only one matters! For that one crucial ancestor there is a approx 5% chance that they were Jewsih (25/475).

Fell free to correct my math sicne this is quickly off the top of my head

I dont see how you get to half of spain’s population being Jewish.

“Regarding responding to every question, I dont have time to address every nuance.”
