Colorado GOP Candidate Believes 'Abortion Is A Human Sacrifice' To The Demon Baal

Colorado GOP Candidate Believes 'Abortion Is A Human Sacrifice' To The Demon Baal

GOP candidate Tim Reichert has a competitive edge in Colorado’s 7th Congressional District where he's running a campaign fueled by extreme beliefs on women's reproductive rights.

Reichert's position stems from his belief performing an abortion is “the sacrifice of a child at the altar of Baal.” He also maintains there is a direct relationship between women using contraception and infidelity, arguing it destroys the institution of marriage.


He also believes birth control contributes to rape.

Reichert shared some of his views in an acceptance speech for an award he received from Catholic Charities of Denver.

People were appalled when Reichert's "firmly held beliefs" came to light.

One person commented:

"Reichert, what effing planet R U from?"
"U have some real scary, insane issues, bud."
"Did mommy drop you on your head a few times?"



Someone else wrote:

"Tim Reichert, an example of a how a person who is bright in one area and earns a PhD but can be a complete moron in other areas."
"I call it the Jordan Peterson effect, a cohort of conservative ultracrepidarians who can’t stay in their own lanes."

Others were shocked this rhetoric continues into the 21st century.

One person wondered:

"Where are the rocks that these creatures crawl out from underneath?"

With a Democratic incumbent and one of the most favorable abortion laws in the country, Colorado is in for a rude awakening if Reichert pulls ahead. Colorado remains one of the only states that does not have a gestational limit on abortion.

Last year, the district was redrawn allowing for a more competitive race.

On top of that, the current Democratic Representative, Ed Perlmutter, will not be running for reelection in the fall. So far, Reichart is the only candidate who has qualified for the Republican primary ballot.

One person noted:

"Tim Reichert is running for Congress in Colorado’s 7th District, and is so far the only candidate who has qualified for the Republican primary ballot."
"He has described abortion as 'the sacrifice of a child at the altar of Baal'."
"We need a DEM to run against this crazy guy!!!"

Many are worried about his chances, hoping a promising Democrat will step up.

The reality of his chances—in a state that sent Lauren Boebert to Congress—is jarring.
