Costco has apologized for labeling some Bibles as “fiction”. Amidst the uproar in the community and Christians in general, and threats to boycott Costco, the company assured the public that it was a mistake made by the distributor, and that it would be corrected, according to L.A. Times.
The pastor who found the Bibles was invited to appear on Fox News for a talk with Elizabeth Hasselback, which led Costco to scramble and release a statement.
“We deeply regret the mislabeling of the Bible and meant no offense to anyone,” the company wrote in an email received by several customers. “The buyer has let us know that this was an error and the books are being pulled off the shelves to be re-marked.”
“However, we take responsibility and should have caught the mistake. We are correcting this with them for future distribution,” Costco said.
Caleb Kaltenbach, the pastor who found the bibles, tweeted this picture that started it all, only after he couldn’t get an employee to assist him with his inquiry, according to Fox News.
god bless.
