"I realize that you believe this to be true for your faith"

"I find it insulting that the author dares to declare that “Judaism is no longer the true faith”.

"It’s true for me and millions of others."

I'm not insulted though you imply my Faith is not the true faith .

I find your response to be a bit puzzling.

“I’m not insulted though you imply my Faith is not the true faith .”

First, are you the author of the article? My criticism was against the author’s article, not you personally. More importantly, I did not imply your faith was not the true faith; just that it wasn’t the only true faith. Again, I understand you feel yours is the true faith for you. When you feel yours is the true faith for me, while that is one of the requirements for your faith, it is insulting to me. That was the whole point; you asked how was the article insulting to Jews. I tried to explain. Did I succeed? Do you now understand how it’s insulting to Jews?

Note that I’m not saying you should stop believing or saying these things; nor that insulting others is your goal; I just hope that you now understand that others might become offended and that from their point of view that feeling is justified.

If I have failed to make you understand, I apologize for wasting your time.
