I understand what you're saying (I think), but I would word it differently.
Ishamael's beliefs are, by our definition, evil.
Therefore, Ishamael is, by our definition, evil.
But, Ishamael doesn't believe he is evil, nor does he believe the DO is evil, nor does he believe in evil. He simply believes what he believes, and doesn't care about any arbitrary label of that belief as Good or Evil.

*sigh* I guess we will just have to agree to disagree then.... I still think your theory is flawed *NM*
