"Who is paying for the teachers, staff, and administrators while those children are gone? Everyone."

Yes, including the Christians who are asking the school to excuse their kids to keep this tradiiton going and including the Muslims who want time off to go to Mosque (in Atlanta). If you have a religius belief you want the school to respect, you have the right to ask them.

"Go do it on your own time and make the legal argument to a court that you have the right to make these people sit idle while your child goes to bible school."

I don't write the laws, and I don't agree with them all. But to aviod the inevitable lawsuits, the school is wise to excuse the kids from class, just like the schools in Atlanta are wise to excuse the Muslims.

"But obviously you think it's okay they sit and do nothing and get paid for it. You must be a politician(joking, but not funny)."

I don't think it's okay, these kind of people bug the hell out of me, but it's not UNLAWFUL.
