Wasn't Moses' religion what he believed and acted a truthful religion, please?

There is no harm if they think their religion is truthful. Right, please?*
I understand, my truthful religion encompasses truthful teachings of all religions (and even non-religions) .Right, please?**

O ye who believe! be heedful of your own selves. He who goes astray cannot harm you when you yourselves are rightly guided. To Allah will you all return; then will He disclose to you what you used to do.

Since, as I understand, the truthful religion had not and could not have stalled the progress of science, isn't it time to turn to G-d, please?
No harm in it, right please?

I disagree. I think that NO religion is truthful.

For instance: all that assume the existence of a supernatural are wrong, in my opinion.

The assumption is that a supernatural exists or that a supernatural deity exists. But there is no evidence of such.
I, for one, think the whole notion of a supernatural is incoherent and useless.

I don't have any such assumption, I perceived G-d's existence very naturally that got further substantiated by reading the truthful and systematic Word of G-d. Right, please?

Because to be a Muslim means to submit to God, and I believe Jesus (pbuh) did just that. Moreover, I believe him to be one in a long line of Prophets of Islam - all preaching the same essential Message about the Oneness of God and how we should relate to God and our fellow humans.
Again, I believe this was Islam
. Any others that don't involve Messengers or Prophets from the Holy Qur'an?

Doesn't one know that Quran mentions about 24 messengers and prophets of G-d by names, and many more have not been mentioned by name in Quran and of those mentioned in Quran there are some whose proper names have not been given but their attributive names, please?Again, I believe this was Islam
How would one recognize them, please?
Regards
And how did you perceive that existence? And how did you know that what you read is, indeed the 'truthful and systematic word of god'?

I think there's more to being a Muslim than that.
Sorry, didn't make myself clear - I'm interested to know whether you believe that there are other truthful religions out there that are not associated with the Messengers and Prophets named in the Qur'an.
Not in the most essential sense.

By that logic, a Catholic is a Muslim.
God sent a long line of Messengers and Prophets with the same essential teachings re the Oneness of God and the correct way to relate to Them and one's fellow humans. These Messengers and Prophets (including Jesus, pbuh) were Muslims and that Message was/is the essence of Islam. Some of the original followers of those Messengers and Prophets remained true to their teachings, but most went astray, necessitating the sending of more Messengers and Prophets, culminating in Muhammad (pbuh) and the most up-to-date and protected-from-corruption version of the Message (contained in the Qur'an and authentic Hadiths). So a true follower of Jesus (pbuh) living at the same time or soon after him would have been a Muslim. But if we are referring to people living today, the Criterion for judging whether they are a Muslim or not is the Qur'an. In that sense, certainly a Catholic living today cannot be called a Muslim.
