Only you are privy to the conversations that happen in your own head.

And nowhere else.
There is nothing demonstrably true that religion can provide mankind that cannot be achieved as well or better through secular means.

No, there is a debate about when oxygen became present on earth, there's now some evidence that oxygen has always been present in earth's atmosphere.
Will be interesting to see what happens, could be a big change a comin'.

Of course there is, our understanding of the early earth is very incomplete. Often times learning about such things is like putting together a jig saw puzzle without the box. You get part way done and you can sort of see the end the outcome but you may end up a while thinking its donkey when the puzzle is a horse.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

I disagree that now is the right time. I would say that the right time was when evolution wound up being an accepted fact in science. I'm not sure exactly when that happened, but I'm sure it was before Darwin's death.

I don't think it was that far back but I would say the discovery of DNA in the 1950s is the absolute latest when there could be any reasonable question about it. That's probably being generous.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

@OP:

Yes. Any (part of a) religion which continues to deny evolution, in civilised areas at least, is going to fold in my opinion.

The bigger problem is getting people to learn about it, and science in general. I see a lot of evidence of people being scared to learn in case what they find out bursts their bubble.

I've never heard of anyone who understands evolution and then rejects it. What they reject is their own uninformed lunatic idea of what they assume evolution is.
