You think theology is necessary to value human life? Or for morality generally?
And I haven't dismissed scientific contributions towards understanding consciousness. Just irrelevant to the points I'm making.
Theology is necessary, IMO, to value non-sentient human life any more than other forms of non-sentient life. At best a human fetus is analogous to a permanently brain dead human. Although technically alive in the biological sense neither is presently capable of experiencing a type of life that is unique to humans or worthy of special moral treatment.
