Well, some people use zero to set up this identity as:

e^(i*PI) + 1 = 0

And then they sometimes use that to try and prove the existence of God due to the existence of such a streamlined relation between what are more or less the five most important constants in all of math.

Of course, that is not what Cenright was talking about; rather this is the real way that zero gets involved with this equation.
