Jehoiakim Tried to destroy part of it Thousands of years ago....
Jeremiah began dictating to his secretary Baruch the words God directed against Israel, Judah, and all the nations, recording messages that had begun to be delivered from the 13th year of Josiah’s reign (at which time Jehoiakim had been about six years old) onward. Nearly a year later, in the ninth lunar month (Chislev, November/December), the scroll containing the dictated message was read before King Jehoiakim. As soon as Jehudi read three or four page-columns, that section was cut off and thrown into the fire burning in the brazier of the king’s winter house. Thus the entire scroll was committed to the flames section by section. Jehoiakim ignored the pleas of three of his princes not to burn the roll. He particularly objected to the prophetic words that pointed to the desolation of Judah at the hands of Babylon’s king.( Jer 36: 21-29)

About the time of the Reformation Tyndale made a translation of the Bible into English, and put out an edition. But becoming more familiar with the original, he wished to make a new translation which should be more correct. He was very poor. How to obtain the requisite means for this new translation he did not know. but the wrath of man came to his assistance. A certain Catholic bishop was much incensed against these protestant Bibles, and resolved to destroy them all. So he sent out his agents, bought up all of Tyndale's Bibles, and burned them. I suppose he then congratulated himself that he had struck a mighty blow against Protestantism; but he was sadly mistaken; for by the sale of his Bibles, Tyndale was supplied with means to prosecute the work which he so much desired to perform. "Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee."

Yes. The Tyndale Bible (first published english language Bible) was persecuted by the Catholics because it was written in the common language (of England), and written with a clear, distinctive Lutheran voice. Check out this website: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyndale_Bible
It is also considered the "father" of the King James Version of the Bible. But technically, yes, as it was considered a heretical document, it was a banned book.

Well there have been some really amusing printing errors that have damaged biblical credibility and created very collectable printings! Here is a fun link to the topic

Once I was trying to start a bon-fire, but couldn't find any good kindling... then I remembered that story in the bible about the burning bush, I thought - hell, if it worked for that fool..... so I lit it, and threw it in the pit.
It was a MIRACLE - the fire raged for 40 days and 40 nights - and after that, I moved away... that really freaked me out!
