As everyone who has spent any time living in Tornado Alley knows, God hates mobile homes. They are always the first to get it in a tornado. He can stack them three deep, throw them a quarter mile, or just shred them to pieces. When a tornado hit my home town in Kansas it missed a house, slipped between two dormitories full of sleeping college students without so much as breaking a window, and then tore the hell out of a few mobile homes before absolutely shredding a mobile home factory. God found the source. The general reaction of the locals was, "Yep." God is not limited to tornadoes, however. If you watch CNN at all you will see a variety of mobile home destruction methods including softball sized hail, torrential floods, and even once - a natural gas explosion from a leaking natural gas storage facility 7 miles away.
I mention this because some family members are going to travel to Nebraska this month, and just today I was cautioning them to stay clear of mobile homes when up pops an article about mobile home destruction in the Seattle Times. Coincidence? I think not. This story very nicely ties up two theories and shows us that they are not mutually exclusive. First and foremost, Darwin's survival of the fittest. Two morons, not wearing seat belts, select themselves out of the gene pool by crashing their car in a spectacular fashion. Now they could have hit a tree or another car - but what did they hit? A mobile home. From the top. They didn't just drive into it, they got airborne and crushed it. That, my friends, is the Hand of God.

What did we learn from this article? First, Darwin's theories and the existence of God are not mutually exclusive. Secondly, God is everywhere, and no place is safe for mobile homes.
