No, it is essentially saying, "that's idiotic therefore I don't agree". Get your shit straight. Stat, people don't have to like me, I'm not some galactic emissary of global atheism. Even those people who wish to set themselves up as emissaries of this or that particular notion have a pretty shitty track record of presenting the world with a reliable positive example. People will dislike you in the absence of any negative input provided from your end as well, let's not forget that.
Lets take a moment, if it pleases you, to consider whether or not the zombie proposal deserve rudeness, arrogance, and condescension. I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that it absolutely does. If you don't want to be criticized for holding such a notion, or you don't want the notion itself to be subject to criticism, (even vitriolic criticism) you can drop the notion, or keep it to yourself, couldn't you? That's not very satisfying though is it?

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
