The point being if one applies strict censorship to one book, one should apply the same rules to all books - and it appears that Walmart is not ready to do that as it has not censored the Bible.

Private enterprises have the right to sell - or not sell - anything they want. That is a benefit of a free market system. Don't like it? It's simple - don't shop at Walmart.

Libraries and other institutions that recieve public funding do not have that right to censor some books and not others, IMO.
