You could very well be correct.

[Cronos]

In my mind there can be no union between orthodoxy and Islam -- but between those who reject orthodoxy, we can read what the Ottoman sultan Murad III said to the Calvinist groups in Flanders and elsewhere in the 1574

"As you, for your part, do not worship idols, you have banished the idols and portraits and "bells" from churches, and declared your faith by stating that God Almighty is one and Holy Jesus is His Prophet and Servant, and now, with heart and soul, are seeking and desirous of the true faith; but the faithless one they call Pope does not recognize his Creator as One, ascribing divinity to Holy Jesus (upon him be peace!).."

The Ottoman sultan knew who would eventually unite with Islam -- as we saw in the Battle of Vienna in 1683 when Catholic Austria, Hungary, Poland etc. fought against Islamic Turks united with the Hungarian Calvinists
