I think it's pretty obvious I wasn't trying to be helpful, I was trying to discourage the sort of perverse laziness necessary to post a comment like that without even trying to google it. I could have just downvoted and moved on.

Edit: Okay fine.

It's not necessarily laziness, and I saw no evidence of a lack of trying to google it. The "Jesus Camp" link was given with little context and was an arbitrary Youtube link. Thus, it could have been referring to any number of things called "Jesus Camp" at the time this article was posted, which may or may not be the same thing that now (or for future readers) turns up in a Google search results page.
