Cheese is the hardest food to digest you could eat and is very hard on your system
Only in small amounts

The simple answer is yes, in moderation like so many other things that we eat. Cheese is full of a variety of essential nutrients required by the human body and, contrary to some of the answers given, it is more beneficial than consuming milk depending on your age. The human body during (approximately) the 40's to mid 50's actually absorbs more calcium from cheese according to some studies than it does from milk. In addition, despite it being high in fat, a moderate amount of cheese per day (a 3cm cube or a 1 1/4 inch cube) can actually assist the human body in losing weight.
If you are vegetarian the only concern is the use of animal rennet in cheese however there are cheeses that use a vegetarian friendly form of rennet rather than animal. This information can often be found on the manufacturers website or on websites devoted to vegetarian friendly cheese.

Yes it is! Cheese is a great source of calcium, fat, and protein. It also contains high amounts of vitamins A and B-12, along with zinc, phosphorus, and riboflavin.

Yes cheese CAN BE good for you, contrary to what some have claimed. Yes it's true that moderation in everything is good. Also true, and on a far more widespread level is, no one answer that fits all. That can be further expanded to there's no one diet that fits all, contrary to any such claims otherwise. Even many nutritional experts will state the same thing. Of course the "experts or gurus" will say that this or that diet, will be healthy for everyone, and that the listed foods are edible for everyone. It dismisses many illnesses, diseases, or genetic inheritances, such as allergies, or say a genetic proclivity for high cholesterol. In fact there contrary to beliefs from the latter part of the 1960s through the mid part of the 1990s that dietary cholesterol was actually a major contributor to high cholesterol. However some will try to dismiss the findings from the mid 1990s through the 2010s as outdated science.
However while it's true, that cheese contains the essential nutrients, vitamin A, Vitamin B12, and K2, it also includes vitamin B1 and vitamin B6, along calcium, selenium, zinc and magnesium. However there are4 not only those with lactose who should or needs to avoid cheese, but also those who through a tick bite, specifically the lone star tick in the U.S., along with some of the other blood sucking parasites, contracted the alpha gal antigen. Which fortunately is not known to be a lifelong affliction. Diabetes and in particular type one is not caused by dairy. In fact there is not one shred of scientific medical evidence for. Type one diabetes is a genetically inherited disease. Type two can be because by many things, but once again the link between it and dairy doesn't actually exist. This is a myth that SOME vegans promote as a fact, and without any credible sources. The same with cancer, and osteoporosis, as per one claimant's false claims. Nor does it cause constipation in everyone or "become a brick in you intestines if you eat to much", I know better from firsthand experience. Nor are some has put it will cause cholesterol to build up in the heart. In fact it's actually only a very small percentage of the populace whom SOME fats such as found in cheese might build up. Yet some, and specifically some within the vegan lifestyle and community who has unfortunately dismissed hard science, and decided opinion based pseudoscience is what is top be believed, and accepted as fact. There's become one glaring fact about nutritional science, that is due top to many self interest groups, the field of nutritional science has become more of a soft science, rather than a hard science. There are to many who wants their biased opinions held up as hard science fact, due to the fact that they constructed the "study", to yield the results they wanted the study to yield.

It is unless you're lactose intolerance.
