What I am saying, plain and simple, is that animal fats from properly
raised animals are much healthier than highly processed vegetable
oils.
Is anyone prepared to dispute this statement?

I think I could cook the fat using certain techniques that are common
and make the fat unhealthy, though not necessarily as bad as highly
refined and highly polyunsaturated oils. Obviously, if the person or
animal ate a diet rich in antioxidants, this might negate the
problems. However, if we took that fat and cooked it until it was
most unhealthy (steaming might do this), then fed it at 30% daily
calories to someone whose diet was devoid of antioxidant-rich foods,
it might make sense to call it "contextually unhealthy" at that point,
for example. |

In a book about chemistry of food one can find out that animal fats are made
from fresh raw material (live). Raw materials for vegetable oils may be
partially rotten and for this oils must be refined. So you are right.

Which fatty acids do you consider to be the most healthy and which are
the least healthy?
Are you addressing CVD, cancers, or some other medical ailments?

Indeed, and why the effort to distinguish desirability of animal vs
vegetable, anyway? We are omnivores, after all.
Less processed is more like the food during the evolution of our genome,
whether animal or vegetable. It is healthier.

Which vegetable oils would not be highly processed?
