Nuclear research

It is known that Germany was researching nuclear power during the second world war , so if Nuclear weapons are so bad why would Germany invest it's already thin resources into nuclear research if they weren't intending to use it ?

First , there is no such order as Germany didn't have any nuclear weapons at the time , and second if they weren't developing any then why spend your already thin resources on nuclear research and develop a long range bomber to deliver them like the Horton 229 ? It just doesn't make sense to me.
