* it is unlikely that too few people would volunteer to leave the boat. When the [[Titanic]] sunk, men volunteered to give lifeboat space to women and children, for example, and there was no ethical dilemma.
== Biblical Solution ==
There is a passage in the [[Gospels]] that suggests that [[faith]] is the solution to the dilemma:<ref>Matthew 8:23-27 (NIV).</ref>
:Then [[Jesus]] got into the boat and his disciples followed him. Without warning, a furious storm came up on the lake, so that the waves swept over the boat. But Jesus was sleeping. The disciples went and woke him, saying, "Lord, save us! We're going to drown!" He replied, "You of little faith, why are you so afraid?" Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm. The men were amazed and asked, "What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the waves obey him!"
