Most Jewish Kosher laws were created for health reasons, and are continued as a form of respect for the past as well as as a form of cultural identity. The milk and meat thing is twofold: it was started, basically, because thousands of years ago, before the invention of dishwashers, using the same utensils for both meat and dairy could get you sick, due to bacteria growth. The second reason is out of respect for animals – the quote is something like, ‘You shall not seethe the calf in its mother’s milk.’

Lots of Kosher rules are for similar reasons: No shellfish because it caused hepatitis (and, in some parts of the world, still does) and no pork because there was no way to cure pork back then. Also, Kosher slaughter rules (meaning what makes the meat in your deli ‘Kosher’) have much to do with making sure the animal dies the quickest and most painless death possible.
