Could Dumbledore Really Be Evil?

A few friends of mine has brought it to my attention that "Dumbledore is 
stronger and more powerful than Lord Voldermort." Of course I naturally 
agreed, but when they elaborated, I was a bit confused. In the 4th book, when 
Harry is recalling the events after the TriWizard Task (#3), Harry tells 
Dumbledore about the use of his (harry's) blood in the potion(or whatever) 
that restores Voldermort. Harry tells Dumbledore that Pettigrew had used his 
blood to enable Voldermort to touch him. 

In the book... 
 
         "He said my blood would make him stronger than if he'd used someone 
else's," Harry told Dumbledore. "He said the  protection my-my mother left in 
me-he'd have it too. And he was right- he could touch me without hurting 
himself, he touched my face." 
       For a fleeting instant, Harry thought he saw a gleam of something like 
triumph in Dumbledore's eyes. But next second, Harry was sure he had imagined 
it, for when Dumbledore had returned to his seat behind the desk, he looked 
as old and weary as Harry had ever seen him."

What do you all think? 

Any theories/ideas on this subject? (I'm really evil.... I'm making my drama 
students write essays for extra credit on this subject and other HP 
theories.)
