The cholesterol in eggs does contribute to the progression of atherosclerosis. This build up in the arteries. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/9001684/

The cholesterols the body manufactures do do what you say, however the cholesterol in eggs do contribute to this process. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/10704618/

Since the arteries are getting clogged with the help of eating eggs regularly, this is a contributor of heart disease. http://nutritionfacts.org/2013/09/10/eggs-vs-cigarettes-in-atherosclerosis/

I don't know why you are saying this. Because it is not the cholesterol in eggs directly?

Now like you say animals die in plant-food production. This is true and obviously I don't think it is moral.

Are you saying this to change the subject to look for hypocrisy? Or is this a justification for what happens in the egg industry?

If in my hypocrisy, well I know how to contribute to a reduction in the egg industry and so I will. A reduction would mean less hens, caged or free-range, being exploited to produce eggs for us, and less male chicks being killed in a grinder.

With the eradication of species from farming plants that I eat, you tell me? Obviously I do not think this is moral so if I knew how to reduce this I would.

And as for the eradication of species from farming plants that are used for chicken feed, well again I do know how to contribute to it's reduction.

Nowhere do I see a justification to continue eating farmed eggs because I'm a hypocrite that doesn't know how to reduce every instance of animal death.

Yes you are right animals are dying in every instance of food production. Which direction however leads to less and less animals dying in all industries?

And you were right that I couldn't be bothered late last night.
