Thats interesting INWT I have never noticed the triangle pointing downward in the second double headed eagle. I always thought one looking to the left and one to the right meant duality in some sort of way.

Actually I thought when it came to duality the force considered "evil" is not inherently a bad thing, just holds the potential to be used in a bad way. Duality is necessary in the materialistic realm to activate and animate matter.
So in holding duality as a reality it doesn't have to be for ill will.

It would depend upon what you mean by "duality".
In philosophy of science, dualism often refers to the dichotomy between the "subject" (the observer) and the "object" (the observed).

Well Duelism does appear to have several different meanings, but it generally means that there are two of something that in some way relate to the other. (i.e Good/Bad, Yin/Yang, Player/Spectator)

If masonry claims to altruistic, compassonate and orderly then it is possible that masonry is also capable of the opposite which is cold-heartedness, ill-will, malevolence and dis-order.

Now, one of the criticisms of freemasonry that has often made me question their intentions, something I generally do not do because I think Masons are generally good people, is why they place "evil" in front of good... For example, when they are talking about Armageddon, instead of saying it will be aa "battl of good vs.evil," Masosns say, "it will be a battle of evil vs. good." I have never really understood the reasoning for this...
