They saw the Greeks as an advanced society and why reinvent the wheel when they could borrow. Our society has done exactly the same thing. Everyday there are things you use, wear, and see that are based on the past. History is layers of interconnected civilizations and we are not separate from our past but part of it. History is not like chapters in a history book, but all leading one to the other based on what went before. Watch the old TV series Connections.

Romans did not think much of the Underworld and death and ghosts; these aspects of their religion were largely borrowed from Greek myth.
the gods balanced out life and death for the Romans
