You couldn't possibly be more wrong. If you do your research you will find that nature found a way to compensate for the avidin(the "bad" protein you were speaking of) that binds to the biotin. If you eat the whole egg, yolk and all, and not just the egg whites(in which the avidin is found), the biotin found in the yolk will more than compensate for the amount of avidin in the egg white. The yolk of an egg contains one of the largest concentrations of biotin in nature that we know of.
The biggest health risk about raw eggs is salmonella, but anyone with a half decent immune system has nothing to worry about, and the chances of consuming a "bad" egg if you eat eggs on a regular basis is about once in a lifetime. Not bad considering the most you'll probably ever get from a slight salmonella infection is maybe a few loose stools.
