Default Ghoulfiends

On the FAQ page of this site it says this:

Q. Are the Ghoulfiends supposed to be Undead?
A. No, they're like that all the time.

I just got done spending the better part of an evening arguing with my friends who apparently do not read whole sentences in proper context and read only the first two characters of the answer. They believe it says no. Period. It obviously doesn't, and at least to everybody else I have actually READ the whole question AND answer and not just the parts of it they want to read and dismiss the rest.

Plainly put, are Ghoulfiends Undead? Yes, or no?

Thanks for the prompt reply. I do have one request though. Can you update the FAQ to be more clear?

The FAQ answer for this is very confusing and can be easily misinterpreted. Except for my two buddies -- who were already bias against them being undead due to an earlier game where they won, by not allowing me to play it with a wandered in undead -- everybody I had read those two lines interpreted as they ARE supposed to be undead. I saw it as a sarcastic joke answer to the question, and so did everybody else except for my 2 aforementioned buddies.
