They died from their life style for the most part. God had no need to help it appears.
What, like Thomas Andrews, Managing Director of Harland And Wolff and chief designer of the Titanic, presumably "the man who built" the ship (inasmuch as there was any one man who did) and challenged God? His primary concern was the survival of other passengers. Once the ship's fate was understood, he spent much of the time persuading reluctant passengers to leave the comparative safety of the liner and trust an open boat (it seems strange to our modern eyes, particularly as we have the benefit of hindsight, but Titanic was actually intended to be her own lifeboat). Andrews was given the opportunity to save his own life yet the last anyone saw of him, he remained seated in the ship's First Class Smoking Room, his untouched lifejacket on a table next to him. His body was never recovered.
So yeah, I can totally see why a man like that absolutely needed to die along with over fifteen hundred sinful people, including all those evil children.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
