Pride is possible either way.
Responsibility, sin, repentence, love, meaning (what you choose matters) is only possible in one.
It is not a diminishment of God’s power if He wishes real relationships with real people who come to him of their own choice.
Somehow I have never felt "pride" in my salvation because I KNOW I didn't do anything. I thought this as a synergist and I'm more convinced of it as a monergist. How a Christian can truly feel pride in their salvation, either way, is a foreign concept in my way of thinking.

God's power is not diminished. It is our preception of His power and our understanding of God that is diminished. The synergistic view of God is a false doctrine that leads to just about every Christian and non-Christian error there is. A person cannot honestly understand and explain the Gospel of John, Romans or the Old Testament where God chose a nation out of the people of the earth to be His testamony. Instead these books become nothing more than moral teachings.
Just ask yourself the question, where does your faith come from-from God or from man? I will confess, it baffles me that Christians cannot give the obvious answer to this question.
