It's the same as the government subsidizing Teslas. Tax dollars shouldn't be subsidizing luxury items.
In the situation where the school is a special needs school then that could be different.

Who's subsidizing who here? Government treats all children equally eligible for the same funding, regardless of the provider of education, as long as provider teaches the approved curriculum among other subjects. The "children of wealthy parents and religious parents shouldn't receive funding" is totally irrelevant.
