I think that perhaps the most evil person I have known was not a 
witch, but in fact assisted in a Anglican church.  She had a friend 
who was a witch (just "came out of the broom closet") and who acted 
somewhat as a calming and restraining influence.

Not that I'd hold these up as either typical or atypical of either 
form of belief.  It also depends on what is your definition of evil 
really.  The rest just seems to fall back on stereotypes.
