They did not steel them as such, they just incorporated them into their culture and religion, the same way they did to certain Asian and Egyptian gods. In fact they didn't so much "plagiarize" Greek religion as find parallels between Greek mythology and their own (which was already of a similar nature), and thus considered the mythology of the Greek as "additional information" to their own.

NO. aha.

Romans did not steal Greek gods.(Obviously you cannot steal gods, yes maybe adapt to them. but if you believe myths and consider them true. Romans conquered Greece. and so Romans, jealous of the religion of Greece adapted the way. And so, Romans believe when they conquered Greece that Greek gods also changed attitude, ways,clothing,living.)

The statue of Athena Parthenon was removed it the 5th century AD, after Athens had been under the Romans for centuries. Therefore, it is most likely that there was an order to remove it, rather than a theft. It is not known why it was removed. There was a mention of its presence in Constantinople in a 10th century account. Thus, it is likely that it was moved to that city.

the Greeks had the ideas, yet lacked the skill. Romans had the skill and got the ideas from the Greeks.
