See: Re" Pasteurization and the "Milk Problem" at CureZone.

thousands of children died from raw milk at the first part of the last century, thus the pasteurization was created

If you are black, then you might like to know that lactase produced in raw milk makes it digestible to lactase intolerant people.
Your comments on allergies applies to factory farmed pasteurised dairy, not grass fed organic dairy, it is an important distinction.

I sent a personal message as 500 word limit was too restrictive.

Wrong sugar, wrong protein. Lets see now cows have mad cow disease, bovine TB, and any other viruses. Lets take Mad Cow Disease: it only takes one bad prion to infect you and it is passed through the cows milk to the comsumer and no amount of cooking or heat treatment kills it.
You think fecal matter has such good properties? Go eat cow pie then.
You don't work or have an interest in the dairy industry do you by any chance? Are you reading dairy sponsered reports?

I am nearly 50, never had a broken bone, crashed my bike several times. I'd take a bone density challenge with you any day of the week.

I like the word implicated here. Cases have been examined where respondents were only questioned if they said they had consumed raw milk. Many of the pathogens involved are more commonly found in meat, and would not be in the milk of a certified herd at source.
As for the illnesses, how do these figures compare with hamburgers, seafood and salads? Clue (they are all much higher)

What study? The often quoted "Unpasteurised Milk: The Hazards of a Health Fetish" is misleading to the point of dishonesty. It claims "numerous studies have shown there is little nutritional difference between pasteurised and unpasteurised milk" which is true. But it omits to mention that there are many studies that show that raw milk is superior to pasteurised milk. Since the former are neutral, the consensus is raw milk is more nutritious.

I guess you never did any reading. The standard test for Pasteurisation is to test that the enzyme Phosphatase has been destroyed. Phosphatase is needed for the uptake of Calcium.
Studies have shown pathogen growth is suppressed and pathogens reduced or eliminated in raw milk.
I have first hand experience of people who are lactose intolerant who can drink raw milk (2 sisters)

Fecal bacteria in grass fed cows include strains of beneficial lactobacillus. Studies have shown E-coli are suppressed or eliminated when added to raw milk. Grass fed cows do not incubate this pathogen in their gut, and it is not usually found in their fecal material. The same applies to Salmonella.
Certified raw dairy herds must be Brucellosis and Tuberculosis free, so not relevant.
Raw milk resists pathogen growth, and contains good bacteria nobody said it was sterile.
@daro2096
PASTEURIZED milk is the leading cause of allergies because all the bacteria that produce lactase to digest lactose have been killed off due to extreme heat.
All of these symptoms you speak of are alleviated when raw milk is consumed.
Fat is one of the most important nutrients for a person to consume.
60% of your brain is made of fat, and 50% of every single cell in your body is fat.
You've been told lies about fat, it is carbohydrates that make people fat, not fat itself.

Milk the perfect food?
Well it is if it comes from your mother, i.e. human milk. Man is not designed to drink cows milk.
Milk is one of the leading causes of allergies. It causes constipation in white children and diarrhoea in black children. Milk irritates the lining of the colon causing it to bleed resulting in bloody pooh.
You can get your calcium intake from dark greens. Milk is full of fat and sugar.
You don't need milk.
