I can see their frustration though, Sam Dunn brought up this issue in the 2005 documentary Metal: A Headbanger's Journey when he was asking about the title of their album God Hates Us All. Araya stated that God doesn't hate, but "it's a fucking good album title", or something along those lines. I know he used that interview as a segue for going to Norway and interviewing some of the '90's black metal bands as well as a preacher who worked at one of the churches that was burned down.

I know this documentary well, and I`d agree with Tom Araya`s assessment in that it was chosen as a great sounding album title. It also rates as one of my all time favourite Slayer albums to boot as well.
As for true anti-christian values, I only really think of the Norwegian black metal bands as violently expressing these opinions.
