I skimmed it. Not saying humanity covers all evil. But, they hold the majority.

Jim Butcher...  Tortures another for the purpose of punishing those who love the person being tortured.

Evil's only a problem that way if you assume the existence of an omnipotent, omniscient and benevolent God.  We have no confirmation that the White God in the DV fits these criteria.

In the Dresdenverse you absolutely can, as the Angels have shown.  It's about Choice.  If you could do no wrong, if you could not say "no" to good, then you are not a free being, you're a robot, a slave.  The only way for you to have free will is to be able to say "no" to good.  It is freedom vs peace.  Within the Dresdenverse the Angels job is to ensure freedom to choose from those who would deny that Choice.  In a place where freedom exists, evil will happen.
