But, if the light is pure evil, why is it so important that it doesn't go out? The 'mother' said that she has to protect it, and when the boys asked why, she said that if it goes out there, it goes out everywhere... if it's evil, wouldn't that be good? Unless the 'mother' herslef was just evil and wanted to keep evil in the world...

I saw that as more literal. As in, it will "go out" of the island and "go out" of people everywhere and consume the world in darkness. I saw "go out" as in leave, not extinguish. However, thinking of it like that, its probably more likely that you're right.
