*Religion and Spirituality, I mean :)
"I do/don't believe that {something} exists/happened/will happen because the Bible says so."
(I'm not a troll. Really. I'm just a bored liberal arts student with no one to talk to about this stuff :)

Ok, here's one. "God exists because it says so in the Bible. And since the Bible was written by God, it must be true!"
*got this from a philosophy textbook

Tons of times.
There are always the bible-thumpers that say, "I know you will burn in hell/live in sin because you're gay, because the bible says it's an abomination." Of course, these people aren't 'christian' anyway, so few people listen to them, as they are going against all their teachings. WWJD?
Look at any of the "creationism" and "intelligent design" debates to see more instances of this. For example: "I know the Flood happen because the bible says so." "I know dinosaurs are only 6000 years old because the bible says so." "I don't believe in evolution because the bible says . . . ."
