If the church made no effort to destroy all or even a significant number of copies of the books(bet your last dollar on that), expressing fear of a mere media event is over-the-top political correctness.
Great points! We're supposed to be all up in arms because a few yahoos burned their own copies of books? Oooh, scary.
Bravo, such fools, history is replete with the numerous social benefits derived from book burning!
