Don't debate what to believe but what to anticipate. Belief should flow from anticipation, which should be the focus of inquiry. j.mp/9YLZjx

Compressing a bit further to leave room for the 'http://' prefix would be nice, but this is as far as I could get it.

Here's my version:

Debate anticipation and not belief. To be established honestly, belief must flow from actual anticipation. http://j.mp/9YLZjx

The first sentence could perhaps be eliminated entirely.

Debate anticipation rather than belief. Anticipation should be your focus of inquiry, from which belief should flow. http://j.mp/9YLZjx
