Lilith was not evil, but later was "converted" to evil by the Jewish and Christian patriarchy. In ancient myth, she represented the empowerment of women. She was definitely NOT a submissive type and sought to awaken females into their own womanhood and sexuality. The worship of this kind of powerful goddess did not suit a religion that was trying to suppress women, so they twisted her story. Instead of being women's protector, she became a threat to their children - the most effective way to instill a fear of her. Instead of being a savior of women and their power, she became a demoness and even vampire. For further reading: Stone, Merlin.
