You don't have to unless you just like the taste. There's no reason it's essential - try soymilk or almond milk you might like the nutty taste better. Lots of juices have added calcium too - just as much as a glass of milk.
PS: Look at some statistics sometime - countries that drink the most milk have as much as or more cases of osteoporosis than countries who drink hardly any.

You are right!
The international Dairy conspiracy is a modern evil that all right-thinking people should oppose!
Cows? Evil lunatics pretending to be fluffy dolphins, I say!
Calcium can easily be absorbed via cheese at the end of a bloody good lunch (As I remember saying to the waiter at the Goring Hotel only five hours ago).

You shouldn't. Most people are lactose intolerant (but they don't know it), and non-organic milk is really scary. The main nutrient milk has is calcium, but you can get that from a lot of other sources.

As you get older, your bones become more weak if you don't get enough calcium. Milk is a good source of calcium and can help prevent osteoperosis (which means weak bones)
It also goes good with cookies!

For calcium. Makes your bones stronger. I HATE milk but make it up by eating cheese.

To make your bones strong of course.
And of course, it goes better with cereal than water.
