Gus Gordon is officially a Catholic priest who preaches on weekends for Food for the Poor. In effect, however, he is "atopia" (unclassifiable) who aspires to the freedom of life in the manner of Ikkyu, Rabelais and Thomas Merton. The thread connecting this tradition is "simply being a human being." The motto set for his tombstone is: "If you are not for yourself, who will be? If you are only for yourself, who are you? If not now, when?" (Rabbi Hillel).
