Why did the manifest destiny started?
Manifest destiny meant that it was the God-given right for Americans to settle the land from sea to shining sea. It was the "responsibility" of Americans to gain the valuable natural resources that the land had to offer. Manifest Destiny took place from about 1820-1860, and then Homesteading began. Americans moved west from all different lifestyles, places, and even countries to obey "God's Command", to pursue religious freedom, and sometimes just to do something new, daring, exciting, and adventurous. The new settlers migrated mostly in covered wagons called "Prairie Schooners". The men, women, and children walked most of the time to help save the oxen's strength. Pioneers endured harsh conditions and left behind their former lives to pursue manifest destiny. Although there are many accounts of the hardships that the settlers faced, they were causing hardships for another group of people. The Native Americans had to face new diseases and new people on the land that was always theirs. They were forced off of their land so that manifest destiny could be continued. Manifest destiny was helped along by the Oregon Trail, the Railroad, Mountain Men, The Independence of Texas and the war with Mexico. What the people involved in manifest destiny did so long ago has helped shape who we are as a country today.

Was manifest destiny the main topic of the lincoln douglas debates?
It was one topic, but certainly not the only one. First, it is worth noting that there were seven debates (and for modern students, accustomed to seeing candidates give one minute responses to questions, each candidate spoke for as long as an hour, before giving way to his opponent). As for Manifest Destiny, the belief that America had both the right and the duty to expand and take over more territory, this was indeed a point of contention between the candidates: Douglas generally supported the idea, while Lincoln generally did not. But most historians will tell you the main topic for the debates was the controversy over slavery-- especially whether the spread of slavery should be limited by the federal government, or whether the individual states should be allowed to make the decision to permit it or not.
Was manifest destiny a good or bad thing?
The justification of Imperialist Expansion under the term 'Manifest Destiny' was by no means unique to the American Settlers. The Colonialisation process resulted in large scale extermination and suppression of indigenous peoples as well as exploitation and theft of land and resources. Many European countries were guilty of the same thing by another name. Forced movement of peoples, slavery, and what by today's standards can not be tolerated, is to be condemned, yet continues today in other guises. The past can not be undone. Blaming people for being 'Wrong' is futile. What can be done is to learn the lessons of history, and never to repeat them. America and other former Colonisers need to face their past squarely and deal with it in an honest and just way regardless of vested interests. Open repentance for harm done, and meaningful reparations for those who continue to suffer the consequences is the only way. Until this unfinished business is dealt with, anger, resentment, non-integration and retribution will continue to smoulder at some level or other, whether it be in open protest or sullen insolence. For the USA this especially means the indigenous Indian Tribes, and post slavery Blacks. A good start would to be to make History a mandatory subject in Schools, and to teach it as it really should be taught: the 'unwhitewashed' Truth, the lessons to be learned from it, and how to manage the future better.
