Accepting things the way they are is an important part of my religious doctrine. So yes, I do. That doesn't mean I should embrace it though.

Yes. Time changes everything constantly. So as long as there is time, there is always room for improvement.
Gods or no Gods, I do not accept the world in the state that it is in. I work to fix what I can.

What kind of improvement/solution does you religion predict to come by the time ?

Many currently trying -- many tried in the history, but, NOT succeeded.
What makes you sure that you will succeed ?

I do not accept the evil in this world, and to end evil, the only solution is religion or spiritual practices.
Suffering, starving, is not the evil in it self, that is human beings ego, ignorance and evil mind that has caused others to suffervor starve.
What i disagree in your OP is the part of no God.
Everyone can succeed in fixing something in their own way. Not any one person can change the world (typically), but every person can plant a garden. Although, there will never be an end to the problems, only more problems that need new solutions. That is our burden to bear.

Reunion with the Almighty God and Righteousness. How these things unfold exactly I don't know, I feel I'm being too presumptuous if I go too much into details, but God has given me Faith and a sense of right and wrong that works for me.
How much time left in actual ?
I'm not a prophet. And even if I were much more advanced, why should I know.
What I believe and feel is that the old order is on its deathbed and the new is being born.

Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
Happy? How can one be happy unless one just ignores all the injustices, inequalities, stupidities, and all the rest that affects large numbers of people whilst merrily going one's own way? And I'm not sure believing in any God or gods has done anything to help this situation unless such saw all humans as essentially the same and didn't segregate in any manner - which few beliefs do. One demographic or another (the believers all too often) seems to be raised up or brought down (the non-believers), and is usually endemic in having such beliefs.
I'll be happier when I see progress towards more equality, less greed, and better attitudes to other life (amongst others) - and which can all come from reasoning rather than religious beliefs.

How spiritual practices is solution to evil ? do you care to explain please ?
Spirit of Light
Be who ever you want
It teaches each person to leave evil deeds toward others, it teaches people to awaken spiritually, something evil do not want humans to do, because when evil is exposed it become weak and disolve because of the truth that religions teaches.
Evil hate the truth.

But, the continuity of problems -- then solutions -- then again new problems -- and then again new solutions. Its all continuity of problems -- never ending -- nobody can fix permanently.
Isn't this the wastage of time ?

Who's to say? I am only here to do my part to fix problems. Now how do we get more people on board with that attitude?

Ages passed -- religions tried their level best teaching people to leave evil actions -- many left -- but at same time many new started -- world didn't changed -- world population of the both types of people always remained the same.
How is this a solution for the world ?
No. I don't think God ever represented any kind of teachings to END evil in this world.
