Tzvi Ben Roshel1:


 This guy is amazing. I didn't listin to this lecture yet, but I did see him before when he came to Yeshiva Ohel Simcha and taught a few of us (one time). He also said a little of his life story, he used to be a priest (from priestly family) in south America, now he lives in Israel learning Torah.
  Their are also some new lectures I saw put up on Torahanytime.com now.

With this priest's conversion to Judaism, he has proven two things:

He is not only a Jew, but he's also a meshugenah!   :::D

What it shows is that he is willing to seek the truth but also stands up to his convictions.

MassuhDGoodName:
No, what Massuh means is that anybody crazy enough to want to become a Jewish convert, considering all the "diminished opportunities" and "social rejections" which are sure to inevitably follow, when as a non-Jew they are subject to none of these problems, ... that person is a bona fide meshugenah!

And MassuhD means every word of it, and he means it humorously.
