Rob Evans has taught millions of Christians that “Life without Jesus is like a doughnut: There’s a hole in the middle of your heart.”

With theology like that he would have just as easily been pulled into Islam or Mormonism if they had got to him first.

Aren't you one of those "but for the grace of God there go I" guys? It seems to me that the doughnut man isn't saying anything less than St. Augustine's "You have made us for yourself, Lord, and our hearts are restless until they rest in you." I guess even the great St. Augustine may therefore have been sucked into Islam or Mormonism if they had go to him first.
