I would imagine so. There is a separation between church and state.

I don't know about Canada, but burning the Bible in the U.S. is perfectly legal. And in fact, for some there is a tradition of burning their Bible once they've purchased a new one (rather than throw the old on in the trash).

Yes, however that would depend on whether
the Bible being burned belonged you or someone else.
Where it was burned is also a concern, fire pit
and fireplaces are OK. Church steps and generally out in public might get you some resistance though.

Absolutely, yes! But, you will need to check with your local fire officer to get the proper permit(s) and to be certain that weather conditions are favorable for a good burn. You might also want time to advertise, so that you can make a genuine media spectacle out of it as well. Besides, the rabidly offended will need time to gather their forces for a public demonstration of their stupidity.

I think not, though there may be some state or local laws against it.
It is sort of weird that we have to have a proposed constitutional amendment to keep people from burning the flag, but the Word of God has no such privilege.
And if we do ANYTHING to the Koran, woe is us.

Probably legal but why would you want to? God is not going to appreciate you burning something that he put on earth to help you! and on judgement day you'll figure that out!

Yup.
I burn plenty of the Bible and the Koran, but only after dunking them in manure. It makes them burn cleaner. Though there's some irony, I think, in dunking bulls**t books in, well, bulls**t.

Yes, but God will take notice. Is burning in hell worth burning God's holy word? You might get a thrill out of it now, but I doubt that you will find hell a thrilling place to be.
