I bought a book from a religious store but when I read it I feel bad. Its about false religion and people who started false religion causing the death of the followers or deceived their followers. Even books with pictures of evil stories carries bad omen. Some suggest not to keep them in your house and burn them.

I dont believe that its possible. What I do believe is that they may be evil inspired or evil spirit magnets.

An evil spirit can not exist in a book, only in the reader. There is no way any book can be a path for the devil to enter our lives. Never, never burn a book,they are the product of thought and hard work. They represent the sum total of all that separates us from animals.

I do think some books can have negative energies about them, as some items might as well. I am in a paranormal research group and I have come across several items that have malevolent things attached to them.
If I get bad feelings I wont keep the item or purchase the item!

I don't necessarily believe the evil spirits are "in" the books BUT I think those kinds of books can open doors for satan to enter our life. It turns our thinking away from God, even for a moment, and gives the evil one a chance for a foothold...even a little toe-hold...in our mind.
I would not have them in my house, but I don't know if I'd go so far as to burn them!
