About the importance of normalization

after studying normalization, I'm a bit confused. I think that normalization is not really so important, as if you build your relational model in a good way, there is no need to consider normalization at all. Is normalization theory really important?.

On the other way, is there any way of automatizing the normalization theory in order to allow a program do the dirty work?.
