I'm not Religious by any stretch of the imagination, but why is it OK for the Gov to burn Bibles, but no OK for private citizens?

Obama himself held out hope the pastor would rethink his plans. "I hope he listens to those better angels and understands that this is a destructive act that he's engaging in."
