It's funny you rely on passages that are not talking about the election of Gentiles.

Just where do you think Corinth was located? Judea?

It's not where Corinth was. It's the fact Paul taught in the synagogues and Gentiles were not allowed in the synagogues.
You posted;

6 For behold your calling, brethren, that not many wise after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:
27 but God chose the foolish things of the world, that he might put to shame them that are wise; and God chose the weak things of the world, that he might put to shame the things that are strong;
28 and the base things of the world, and the things that are despised, did God choose, yea and the things that are not, that he might bring to nought the things that are:
29 that no flesh should glory before God.
30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who was made unto us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption: 1 Cor 1.

There is no election in this passage above.

The root Greek word from which the Greek term comes translated as elect. ἐκλεκτός is from ἐκλέγομαι to choose.

So God chose things. How does this prove the election of the Gentiles. It simply doesn't The word thing means;
THING, n. [The primary sense of thing is that which comes, falls or happens, like event.
Men are not things

You talk about ignorance and you don't know the meaning of the word "THING" You need to take an English course. Paul was speaking about things

1 Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,
2 unto the church of God which is at Corinth, even them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place, their Lord and ours:

Do you not consider man to be a physical object...neither flesh nor spirit, but only a concept? In your thinking is man not a noun?
