If I insult the beliefs of a person who believes themselves to be this mental "Self" they become angry, insecure or upset.

Because they have cultivated a degree of inner freedom by learning not to identify with the mind, personality and self.
A person who identifies with, and believes themselves to be their passing thoughts and emotions, will suffer in life much more than a person who has found the centered of their being, their Soul
