”We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried. Most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita; Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and, to impress him, takes on his multi-armed form and says, ‘Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.’ I suppose we all thought that, one way or another.”
- R. Oppenheimer, ‘Father of the Atomic Bomb’

Watch him actually say these words. How haunted he looks.

Nuclear Detonation Timeline “1945-1998”

First step is admitting we have a problem (Humans).

The United States, how is currently trembling in fear over Iran obtaining a nuclear weapon, has nuked itself over 1,000 times. This was done to both test developments in weapon technology and to send a warning to Russia that we still had and were willing to use nukes. 

This is the equivalent of pulling out a machine gun in the middle of a heated debate and emptying multiple magazines into yourself to scare your opponent off. 

All these explosions reminded me of solar flares which reminded me that the sun is nothing but a constant nuclear explosion which then clicked in my head; has anyone ever checked the link between constant nuclear testing and global warming?

If you attempt to obtain the very same nukes that we happen to own stock piles of, we will nuke you. — Flawed, authoritarian mentality
