The Aztecs venerated and murdered innocent human volunteers to appease their gods and get a reward in the abatement of things like earthquakes and droughts. The willing human sacrifices were even considered to be their god incarnate at the time of the sacrifice.
There is no significant difference between this brutal Aztec culture and that of Christianity. The only real difference is that the Christian human sacrifice is imaginary and the fictitious reward is the eternal endurance of the Christians ego which simply cannot face its own impending oblivion.
