God elects according to man's will, yes, but because it pleases Him to do so.

This is an excellent article on predestination: On Predestination.

Not interested in the article. Where is the Scripture that supports this view?

Yet you do not understand that God foresees from the beginning all that people do within time, that this divine foreknowledge is stable, but the works of humans within time are free. – Orthodox View

"Therefore," says the Pelagian, "He foreknew who would be holy and immaculate by the choice of free will, and on that account elected them before the foundation of the world in that same foreknowledge of His in which He foreknew that they would be such. – Former Catholic View, Augustine on Predestination
