Well since you brought it up (and to salvage some of my ego)...

>>the answer has been said repeatedly that Barbarians do not have inner fire when they are dead and so they resist nothing

So what? Are you saying that the only bad magic is the magic you resist? Isn't that like a paladin saying "it's only evil if I get a soul hit"?

There are inherent coding limitations to the penalty systems. Just because it doesn't activate doesn't necessarily mean anything.

If you want to role-play that magic is evil or bad no matter what, than that is your choice. In fact, that is what you are doing so I know it's your choice. However, just because we resist magic does not make it evil. How we as players translate what is evil for our characters is up to ... <prolonged drum roll> the PLAYER.

^- Exactly.
