Ethics continually change, often drastically. Social mores come and go, with certain practices deemed acceptable in one era or area, but capitally liable elsewhere. Each new civilization seems to have different ideas as to what is acceptable.
Therefore, a higher ethical standard, not invented by humans, can serve as a permanent criterion and a safeguard against excesses.

Were the plebeians influenced by religion?
Roman religion didn't exactly prescribe a code of ethics to live by, so most Romans (plebeians included) only looked to religion as a means of appeasing otherwise unconcerned or even hostile spirits and gods to secure good fortune.

More educated Romans sought ethics and morals (which Roman religion lacked) in Philosophy.
