If -you- define theism as a religion personally (and that's fine) then ofc there can be no theism without religion, it would be tautology.
Religion - ]the belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, especially a personal God or gods.
I think "and worship of" is where the distinction can be made. I can believe in my fart blowing God, and perhaps love him, without any form of ritualistic worship.
