Most people don't read links where the poster can't be bothered to comment on it, summarize it, or extract a debatable point out of it. If the link refers to some allegedly "beautiful message of hope and love, based on our Lord Jesus Christ" then take it to the Spirituality Forum. Don't just spam up the Debates Forum. Have some respect, zeeblebot!
I think that rather to propose a debate, you sent a beautiful message of hope and love, based on our Lord Jesus Christ. And that is something worth of respect.

Here in Indonesia, the government is just about to raise the price of fuel for the 4th time in a couple of years. I ride a motorbike most of the time and I suppose I put about $3 in it every week. It's going to be $4. Two years ago that would have been $1. Not a problem for me, of course, but that is not to say that these amounts of money are insignificant to ma ...[text shortened]... ach year passes.

The price of fuel has quadrupled in the last 2 years or so, or will have by next month when the expected 30% hike kicks in. They are removing subsidies. Some argued that the subsidizing of petrol was a 'pro-poor' policy, but it wasn't. It was unfocussed, very expensive, unsustainable - i.e. bad policy. Petrol is currently 50 U.S. cents a litre.

Those are the questions being debated I'd think.
Originally posted by JigtieThe original poster couldn't be bothered to pose a question. If you're right, and the intended question was "Did Jesus really help them land safely?" well, that's a "yes/no" question, really. Not really a debate. And if people wanted to debate that, it really ought to be one for Spirituality.

Personally I interpret zeeblebot's OP as spam.
