Ahh, f**k off mate. I dont care about your problems with cholesterol. I am not a victim of the media, however I am certain that you are.
Your sources of information are from articles trying to lead people to believe their point of view. My sources are from biochemical texts. Texts that are not attempting to change peoples diet but to aid comprehension of how molecular chemistry works.
You told me earlier that personal attacks show how weak an argument is. How often did you just call me a fool? Also uneducated. And putrid.
I am NOT going to read through 27 papers at the command of a sheep. Not happening. All this is the result of one stupid statemnt on your part. I know what part cholesterol plays in cell membranes. Thats first year biology.
Going to find a collection of sites that support cholesterol being a LIPID.
Will edit this post when i have a long enough list to convince even one of your ignorence

Cholesterol is a sterol (a combination steroid and alcohol) and a lipid found in the cell membranes of all body tissues, and transported in the blood plasma of all animals.

Going to stop now as thats many, many links supporting cholesterol being a lipid. If i search more i may just get repeats from google's definition so i may as well leave it at that.
Now, in case you dont believe me that lipids are the technical term for fats... from google again,
Definitions of lipid on the Web:
Any of a group of fats and fatlike compounds, including sterols, fatty acids, and many other substances.
Descriptive term for a fat or fat-like substance found in the blood, such as cholesterol. The body stores fat as energy for future use just like a car that has a reserve fuel tank. When the body needs energy, it can break down the lipids into fatty acids and burn them like glucose (sugar).
Any of various substances that with proteins and carbohydrates constitute the principal structural components of living cells, and that include fats, waxes, phosphatides, cerebrosides, and related and derived compounds.

The main type of fat found in the body.
nydailynews.healthology.com/nydailynews/15836.htm
Fat circulating in the blood.
a fatty substance in the blood.
Any of a heterogeneous group of fats and fatlike substances characterised by being water insoluble. The lipids, which are easily stored in the body, serve as a source of fuel, are an important constituent of cell structure and serve other biological functions. Lipids may be considered to include fatty acids, neutral fats, waxes and steroids. Compound lipids comprise the glycolipids, lipoproteins and phospholipids.
Any organic compound that is greasy, insoluble in water, but soluble in alcohol. Fats, waxes, and oils are examples of lipids.
A fatty, waxy, or oily compound that will not dissolve in water; it contains hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen, but proportionally far less oxygen than carbohydrates.
A general classification to denote water-insoluble compounds, such as fatty acids and sterols.
(Gr. lipos, fat) Any of a group of fats or fat-like compounds insoluble in water and soluble in fat solvents.
Fatty or oily substance, insoluble in water. Includes fatty acids and triglycerides. For more info, see Lipid Library and this outline.
A substance, containing long chains of fatty acids, which is insoluble in water, but soluble in fat solvents such as alcohol and ether.
A diverse class of naturally occurring compounds that do not dissolve well in water. Includes fatty acids and their naturally occurring derivatives.

Scientific term for fat and similar chemicals.
Fat, or fat-like, substance.
An organic compound composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen that is usually insoluble in water, but soluble in alcohol, ether and chloroform; Different types of fat molecules. For example, phospholipids, cholesterol, triglycerides, steroids, eicosanoids.
Generally, these are organic products found in living systems that are insoluble in water, like fats. Cell membranes are made of lipids. We lose lipids as we age, which is why skin becomes less supple. Broadly, it means true fats (like triglycerides), lipoids (like phospholipids) and sterols (like cholesterol).
The term lipid comprises a diverse range of molecules and to some extent is a catchall for relatively water-insoluble or nonpolar compounds of biological origin, including waxes, fatty acids, fatty-acid derived phospholipids, sphingolipids, glycolipids and terpenoids, such as retinoids and steroids. Some lipids are linear aliphatic molecules, while others have ring structures. Some are aromatic, while others are not. Some are flexible, while others are rigid.
