Do you try and please your god? Why? Their gods (particularly Apollo) were prone to give death to those who did wrong. Apollo was a caring and kind deity, but he did not look kindly on those who disrespected him, nor did the other gods. This is why they worshiped all of their gods, and tried to please them as much as they could.
The Maya offered a variety of items to the gods, including blood through bloodletting rituals, sacrifices of animals or even humans, food offerings, and precious stones or metals. These offerings were made to gain the favor of the gods and ensure the well-being of their community.
