Just like any society that has a belief in mythology, the Romans wanted to please their gods. Unlike the god of the Abrahamic religions, Roman gods did not engage in whole-sale damnation of non-followers/non-believers, and so neither did the Roman government. Remember, too, that the concept of "sin" is a monotheistic concept. The Romans were pantheistic, and as said above their gods and religious beliefs functioned differently than those of monotheism.

Will moral sins be forgiven?
Of course, the only sins which cannot be forgiven are the unforgivable sin which is the sin against Hope (the second of the Cardinal Virtues). The sins against hope which cannot be forgiven are presumption and despair.The former is akin to the Protestant theory that once you are "saved" you cannot do anything to lose your salvation. That is presumption and is unforgivable as you don't think you need forgiveness.The latter, despair, is unforgivable as you don't think you can be forgiven for whatever reason: you think you have committed too many sins, or too horrible a sin, or whatever.The sins against hope cannot be forgiven for the simple reason that you cannot be contrite and ASK for forgiveness. God will forgive ANYTHING as long as we repent of it - which is not just being sorry for it, but trying not to do it again.Sins which we have not yet done cannot be forgiven until AFTER we do them, and repent of them. But all mortal sins can be forgiven as long as we confess them and repent. It is only when we are not contrite and repentant that we cannot be forgiven.
