I think they do and they don't care. This type of action is just posturing by a politician trying to appeal to religious voters and stirring trouble so he can say 'look, I care about your religious values'.
The fact that his actions actually end up promoting said book is irrelevant to the politician. The only question is - does it get them votes? The sad answer is yes, which should tell you a lot about the intelligence of religious-minded voters.
Then again, if you still believe in ghosts in the 21st Century...
