Was the majority of colonists who came to Georgia taken from debtors prison?

No, the majority of colonists who came to Georgia were not taken from debtor's prison. Although James Oglethorpe, the founder of Georgia, envisioned the colony as a refuge for debtors and the poor, only a small percentage of the initial settlers were actually debtors. Most of the early colonists included a mix of other groups, such as soldiers, craftsmen, and farmers seeking new opportunities. The idea of using debtors as settlers was more of a part of Oglethorpe's philanthropic vision than a reality for the majority of the population.
