Sacrifice is to offer up something important to you for the greater good. It's purpose is to make you selfless and humble and to help a cause bigger than yourself.
A volcano's purpose is to vent built-up magma pressure within the earth.
The purpose of sacrificing to the volcano god is to prevent one's island from exploding during the next eruption.

The "point" or reason for a volcano to exist, is to release pressure caused by moving magma beneath the crust. The other way for this magma to be released is through long fissure vents in the ground.
