Actions of Asgore can be justified. His feelings can be understood. But he will still remain an evil killer of children and the Devourer of Children's Souls. I think Flowey would fit that 'Devourer of Childern's Souls' better. Asgore never ended up using their souls - even though he clearly could before the next human fell, which sould make him even more powerful and made the battle against the next human easier.

I think he fears the Soul, knowing they came from powerful beings. And I also have a feeling he knew he could just taken one Soul and cross the barrier, but he was delaying it. Because he didn't want to go.

Adding on to Wild's point, it's true there no one completely evil in the game. Even Chara.
