Life would continue on earth after an asteroid (see: history). The impact would only wipe out the most fragile species, such as humans.
The same holds for nuclear war: life would continue as it always has, species with poor nuclear hardening would be selected against.
The true extraterrestrialism absolutists ought to encourage nuclear winter and asteroid impacts; the life that makes it out the other end will be much better suited for space’s low light low nutrient high radiation environment.
