XDISCIPLEx A.D.
xDISCIPLEx A.D. (or xdisciplex a.d.) was a straight edge Christian hardcore band from Erie, Pennsylvania. Formerly xdisciplex or disciple, the band had to change its name in November 2000 to avoid legal actions due to the already-established Christian metal band Disciple. They released albums with Goodfellow Records, Triple Crown Records and Facedown Records. The band often played in Ontario, Canada, due to its connections with the Buffalo/Hamilton hardcore scene and Goodfellow Records/Redstar Records. In March 2000, Good Life Recordings announced a long-delayed split 7" vinyl between Disciple and melodic hardcore band As Friends Rust. The split, which had been in development since 1998, was scheduled to use the December 1997 recording of Disciple's "Candy Apple", a song with pro-life lyrics, while As Friends Rust contributed a November 1996 recording of "The Only Point", a song with pro-choice lyrics.

Pro-choice
Abortion-rights movements, also referred to as pro-choice movements, advocate for the right to have legal access to induced abortion services including elective abortion. They seek to represent and support women who wish to terminate their pregnancy without fear of legal or social backlash. These movements are in direct opposition to anti-abortion movements. The issue of induced abortion remains divisive in public life, with recurring arguments to liberalize or to restrict access to legal abortion services. Some abortion-rights supporters are divided as to the types of abortion services that should be available under different circumstances, including periods in the pregnancy such as late term abortions, in which access may or may not be restricted.
