Hmm. You are the second person considering bash as evil. What might be the
reason for this?

The problem is the licensing. Many BSD users prefer that essential or standard software use a BSD type license.

Another problem is that bash-scripts are a superset of sh-scripts and since bash is the standard sh on most linuxes many scripts written on linux does not work on other systems which used just sh. It's not really bash's fault but it can create some problems (like pacman using bash- scripts instead of sh-scripts).
