Well, they're not wrong. I quite liked Captain Nemo in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen as a devotee of Kali -- and evidently with a crew that was about 1/3 medics.

Or maybe he was just carrying on the tradition of "You may kill everyone on the enemy vessel save for the navigator and the doctor."
