I think having some sort of conception of the Divine is probably a precursor to Christian faith, but even that is not an entirely unanimous perspective. Bishop Spong of the Anglican Church is notably vociferious in claiming that "theism is dead."
Personally, I think Spong is as closed-minded as the conservatives he decries, but I do agree that there are alternatives to traditional theism.
