As stated in the article, I do believe that because of our possession of such weapons, we have been able to avoid World War III, so yes, I personally believe that the nuclear age has been a blessing. However, I would still say that it is still a verdict to be determined because no one know exactly what the future holds. For the most part, I do feel safe, but, as stated previously, no one knows what the future holds, so anything could happen, we just must stay prayerful.
