The Benham brothers, whose HGTV reality show was canceled before it was ever broadcast, believe that LGBT activists are using bullying tactics to silence Christians who believe that homosexuality is a sin.

“There’s an agenda that wants to silence the beliefs that we have,” Jason Benham said during a Friday interview with CNN. His brother, David, agreed, adding, “They (HGTV) got bullied. There’s an agenda that’s out in America right now that demands silence, especially from men and women who profess Jesus Christ and hold to His standards.”

HGTV announced Wednesday that they have “decided not to move forward” with a reality show called “Flip It Forward” starring the conservative Christian twin Benham brothers who are openly opposed to abortion, homosexuality and no-fault divorce.

The episodes of the show were expected to reflect the brothers’ experience in flipping houses for profit and helping other families do the same.

HGTV made the announcement via social media just one day after the website Right Wing Watch published a post labeling David as an “anti-gay, anti-choice extremist,” for leading a 2012 prayer rally outside of the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, North Carolina. During the rally, he said the nation needs prayer to stop homosexuality, which he said is a sin, according to the Bible.
