I assume they will also ban burning of all religious books to be fair?
Yeah the proposal is for all religious texts
I'm still not really sure if it's a good idea to ban the burnings, since it's apparently how you are supposed to dispose of Qurans in the first place

Context very much matters I think. People respectfully disposing of a religious text don't tend to do it in front of foreign embassies while frothing at the mouth; they aren't simultaneously taking a ritual shit on said text. Exception being Buddhists as destroying Buddhist stuff is part of the whole acceptance of impermanence thing but even then there's ways to do it wrong. Frothing at the mouth being one of them.
Blasphemy laws for the modern day.
