Man you are so brainwashed into dogma God is real but everything works completely differently Bible is a book for children. Don't you think God would be more impressed if you asked for real information about the system of creation Ask as an adult Grow up

To place a stumbling block in front another in the eyes of God. What fruitless generation have ye become.

It's not about whether or not anyone is proud to be an individual, but the idea of a God only choosing a select people to be "his people" is exclusive and smells of human influence.

The people of the Old Testament were "chosen" only in the sense of being the first point of contact. If he's going to address the world largely by indirect communication, then he has to start somewhere.
For the New Testament (since I am not a Calvinist) the excluded are merely those who exclude themselves.
There is a running theme in both testaments that God chooses to address, or has most success with, those who are comparatively weak and powerless, because they are less prone to be proudly self-sufficient and take the attitude of " I'm too big to submit to anyone or need their help".
