what kind of help was an ophthalmologist there to offer? well besides the obvious of diagnosing and treating eye diseases, are you aware that most optical stores collect old eye glasses to distribute to organizations like this?
So you think this traveling group carried around with them piles of recycled eyewear? Let's be reasonable here. You find nothing strange with an opthomologist knowingly putting himself in harms way just to help people see? Sounds like he was trying to make a martyr of himself. Maybe you would have a similar argument if he was there to bring them arts and crafts instead?
Of all the things that are needed in that region, eye care is no where near the top of the list.
Name the last time a christian group killed 5 or more people in one attack. Hell, whens the last time a Christian group killed anyone at all in the name of god?
If the best you can come up with is some incident involving a random crazy guy that happens to be christian, then you have failed. Im talking about an organized group effort in the same way that all the other terrorists operate. If you cant give some good examples, then you will have thoroughly exposed yourself as the naive dumbfuck we all think you are.

Fox News reports on this stuff just months ago - you should be well informed!
These are extremist groups associated with murders, bombings, and other terrorist acts in the name of Christianity, both domestic and abroad. It must be nice living in your obliviously ignorant little bubble. Christianity has historically been the origin of many terrorist organizations, and continues to do so today as well. But let's face it: you don't care about them because those groups are "different". They're not REAL Christians, right? That's how you're justifying it, isn't it?
Perhaps you should
do some reading and then come back to this thread.
