The Arminian wants to have it both ways. He want to say that faith has no merit, but he also wants to say that our faith somehow motivates God to save us, that God chooses us on the basis of our choosing him. But if faith motivates God to save us, then it must have merit in his eyes.He goes on to say...
On this view, our choice is the cause, and God’s choice is the effect. We are the first cause, and God is the second.From this book as quoted in this book.

Thanks for your labeling and gross broad sweeping generalization of anyone who has different theology than yourself. Very helpful indeed.
