Is it wrong that I have mixed emotions about this?

My father read something saying that a nuclear war would knock Earth off its axis. We don't honestly know at this point though.I'm in no rush to go extinct right now, but I wouldn't worry too much about the planet..in the long run.
When we go, either through self destruction or leaving the planet, earth will have almost 5 billion years to restore balance. Anything we do to harm the earth, is really just causing ourselves harm.

Could you then explain what happens regarding climate change if a nuclear war happens? A nuclear war has never happened, and therefore it's all a guess as to what the results will be.We know. Because earth has helpfully shown that it has survived far larger explosions than we're capable of.
Current nuclear stockpile of all nations combined: 5,000 megatons.
Largest volcanic explosion that we know of: 240,000 megatons.
Largest astroid impact that we know of: 100,000,000 megatons.
We're small fish.
