May 11, 2014 at 18:28 comment added Kordovero Tatpurusha, modern authorities don't hold by the Kitzur in this regard. It is fairly common for someone to convert (under widely-accepted Orthodox auspices) even though they are already married to a Jew under secular law.
May 11, 2014 at 18:26 comment added Kordovero "By insisting on nevertheless converting, they will be punished much more severely - for the same sins - as their Jewish-from-birth counterpart, who was not given the choice." What is your source for this? I have never heard this idea.
May 11, 2014 at 15:22 comment added Tatpurusha I would like to add that, according to the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch, it is forbidden to marry a convert with whom you are even suspected to have had sexual relations before his or her conversion.
