It said to celebrate life from conception to natural death

I have a question and will include my wife for an answer. Whence "celebrate life"?

How about "defend life" for it is certainly under attack?

[Mrs. Don-o]

I agree.

“Celebrate life” is appropriate when mother and baby are fine. When mother is being tempted by all the suave and pefumed powers of Hell to commit a desperate and irrevocable act, and baby’s life is moments away from the edge on a knife, the active, transitive verbs are “guard,” “defend,” “protect,” “rescue”-— not “celebrate.”
