1) Why Fluid Typography?

Instead of fixed font sizes or hardcoded breakpoints, fluid typography lets text scale smoothly based on the viewport or container size — improving readability and reducing maintenance. Modern CSS eliminates many media queries. ([Smashing Magazine][1])

Practical, copy‑paste CSS state system patterns (no JS) built on hidden‑checkbox/label toggles, :has(), style queries, and other modern CSS features:

---

1) Hidden‑Checkbox Toggle (classic “CSS checkbox hack”)

Use a hidden <input type="checkbox"> as a state driver. Clicking the <label> toggles :checked which styles siblings. Works for menus, accordions, modals, etc.([CSS-Tricks][1])

Final Word: Trust, Obedience, and the Authority of Truth

At the root of this discussion is a deeper question than staging, sensitivity, or audience response:

Do we trust God to communicate His own message?

Altering the message out of fear that it may offend—whether emotionally, culturally, or personally—is not ultimately an act of care. It is an act of distrust. It assumes that God’s truth requires our protection, refinement, or softening in order to be effective.

Answering the Questions:

“Who defines ‘faithful representation’?” and “How much blood is enough?”

Answering the Questions:

“What about the special needs kids?”

This concern is sincere and should not be mocked or minimized. However, sincerity alone does not determine whether an argument is decisive, binding, or properly applied.

The question is not whether some individuals may be affected differently by intense imagery. The question is whether the presence of a smaller, sensitive subset justifies altering or diluting the core message for everyone.

Answering the Question:

“The actor is not Jesus. This is just a play.”

That statement is factually true—but it does not resolve the issue. It misunderstands the nature and purpose of biblical representation.

No one involved believes the actor is Jesus. No one is proposing a literal crucifixion or the use of real blood. The question is not whether the portrayal is literal, but whether it is faithful.

Debate Concerning a Biblically Accurate Portrayal of the Crucifixion

Specific Focus: The Depiction of Christ’s Blood in the Easter Pageant

What follows is my understanding of the discussion as you conveyed it to me. Please forgive any details I may have misunderstood, omitted, or recalled incorrectly.

A secondary discussion occurred later, but for the sake of clarity, this account is limited strictly to the question of whether—and to what extent—the blood of Jesus should be portrayed during the crucifixion scene.
