It's pretty obvious that nuclear weapons are incredibly powerful. Also, it is a fairly well known fact that during the Cold War, Russia and America had enough nuclear warheads to destroy the world a number of times over. China is coming up, and countries like Pakistan, Iran, and North Korea are all up and coming members of the nuclear club. Where do you see this going? Will it finally sink in that we are standing on a razor's edge? Or will people (governments) hold on to their nuclear weapons until somebody sets one off? and what then?

Nuclear weapons very well could lead to the end of humanity. The UK, France, Pakistan,Israel and India currently have nuclear weapons that you did not mention. Nuclear release has almost happened on several occasions by the US and Russia at the time USSR. It is a well known fact that the US and Russia have enough nuclear warheads to end human civilization and I am sure that the UK, France, and Israel also have enough to accomplish that task. I believe that it is in our nature for self destruction through war.

Anything that can do good is manipulated to do bad, why is that? Is there some malevelant force that is that keen on assuring we don't know the secrets of the world? I say this because in a matter of decades, or centuries, our end will be a man made Armageddon. Will it be nuclear weapons, I'm not sure. But it will be something from our hands, mark my words.

It's inevitable isn't it?
Those in power (governments) would be protected, while the people will be the ones that suffer. Rather be blown up than stuck in a bunker with the people that made the decision to destroy the world.
Imagine a world populated by our current leaders?!

Yes I do believe that when the next world ward comes around, it will be nuclear, and it will be the end of mankind on earth. The earth will be uninhabitable.

Yeah, just like we destroyed ourselves with electricity. Power = destruction. Get a life.

Just like Stephen Hawking said, it's something all of us should think about. It's a very serious threat and that's why we shouldn't be looking for wars...bushy.

Someday it will happen. I think it will begin when Pakistan gets taken over by the radicals.

No I don't, I think someone else might, but I don't think we will destroy ourselves.
