Isla became engaged to the comedian in 2004, and studied for three years before completing her conversion in early 2007. The 35-year-old star took on the Hebrew name Ayala, the Hebrew word for Doe. Isla has joked she is so enamoured with the religion that she’s thinking of becoming a rabbi.
“You study, then have a test. In fact, I’m thinking of becoming a mohel. [Pause] If you knew what a mohel was, you’d laugh. It’s a rabbi who circumcises boys,” she told the April edition of Elle.
Perhaps before becoming a rabbi, Fisher should watch this video, made by YouTube user CFIDSgurl using xtranormal.
The video is very funny. And sobering. I had a conversation a few months ago with my rabbi in which I shared that I am considering studying to become a rabbi. Fortunately, his response was more upbeat than the response given in this video. But this video does put the enormity of the choice into pretty clear focus.

Maybe when she becomes a rabbi she will learn that conversion for the sake of marriage is forbidden and furthurmore the Torah forbids a Kohain from marrying a convert.
