Where the heck did we get the notion that dark is evil, anyways?

Yes, war is evil. Yes, killing people is evil. You do not have to be 100% evil to do evil things. Raping children and burying them alive under your back steps is evil. I am an atheist. My parents were atheist. I was raised in society, so I am sure I have societal conditioning. But even before that I am a human being. I can see where moral restraints and concepts of good and evil allow the human race to survive.
