If you have mortality you will have suffering, loss, pain, anger, frustration, confusion. Removing an abstract like 'evil' & retaining mortality will solve nothing, because all the results & consequences of evil will remain in the world as a result of mortality. The Numenoreans had such an 'evil-free' existence, but the fact of Death & the desire for more life produced evil. Hence in their case evil was a consequence of their mortality, not a cause of it.
