The Greeks influenced the Roman religion greatly. Basically, the Greek Gods and Roman Gods were the same, just under different names. For example, the Greek God Zeus, who was the king of the gods, was the same as Jupiter in the Roman religion.

Greece did not really influence Roman religion to any great extent, except some Romans worshiped or followed some of their minor cults. The Romans already worshiped the same major gods as the Greeks before the conquest, only under their Latin names.
Romans religion was not monotheistic. Like the religions of most ancient peoples, it was polytheistic. Early Roman religion was a variant of Latin religion with a degree of influence by the nearby Sabines and Etruscans and the Greeks of southern Italy.

Roman religion was basically Latin religion and some of its rites predated the foundation of the city. Early Roman religion was also influenced by Sabine religion and Etruscan religion. As the religion evolved, there was an increasing influence from Greek religion and myths.
YES! Most of what we do today were influenced through Rome and Greece.
yes because they say he was the influence of healing the bringing of the plague and more.
Several civilizations had an influence on Roman religion. The largest is probably ancient Greece. Many of the Roman gods have Greek equivalents (ex. Zeus=Jupiter). Another important early influence came from the Etruscans (from the area north of Rome). The third would probably be Egypt. There are also civilizations that influenced Greek religion, which in turn influenced Roman, like Summerian, but that makes the list longer.
Artists from ancient Greece were the biggest influence for the Roman artists.
The empire did not contribute much to Roman religion. This religion was well established before Roman imperial expansion, including the Greek influence on it. This influence came right from the early days of Rome, centuries before she conquered mainland Greece. It came from the Greek colonies (settlements) the Greeks established in southern Italy and Sicily in the 8th century BC and early 7th century BC.
Today most of Italy is Roman Catholic and Greece is mostly Greek Orthodox.

The Greeks had the greatest influence of Roman religion. In their early days the Romans adopted five Greek deities. They also adopted Greek myths and linked their gods to the Greek ones. The Etruscans and the Sabines also had an important influence on Roman religion

One way Europe felt the Roman influence was with religion and Christianity. The law is one of the lasting contributions that the Roman's influenced. They accepted that laws should be fair and equal to everyone.
