After the development of nukes, it was only a matter of time before they got completely out of hand.

I always thought that maybe this is the reason that we are not being visited by any extraterrestial civilizations. Could be that as soon as thinking beings develop the technology needed to destroy themselves, they... go ahead and do it --g/ng.

Non-proliferation is more or less an issue of survival of the species... in fact, of many species. If nukes "completely get out of hand" - the odds of our grandchildren having a normal life expectancy would be... very poor.
