I can only assume you meant they had a field day celebrating how much of Russell's philosophy matched the concerns about Christianity expressed by Jefferson, Paine, etc?

They wouldn't see it until they opened it, so clearly they didn't open it because of the book. And if they need to open your suitcase (not because of the book), they have a reason for that.
