People started burning Beatles albums because in a press conference/interview with The Beatles, John Lennon apparently said something offensive towards Christianity saying how the Beatles were more well known than Jesus Christ at the time, but people took it the wrong way thinking John was trying to say that they're more popular or more bigger than Jesus. Religion was a big priority back then and still is. John Lennon later apologized about his statement and told them that he wasn't trying to say that they were bigger or greater than Jesus and people finally forgave them. It was a really stupid thing people were burning their albums over back in the 60s. They misunderstood Lennon's statement on Christ.
