This has already been asked and answered."When, for fear of offending, shocking, or displeasing, a society constrains itself to silence, it is a deadly poison for democracy."

What I find funny about the whole discussion is that the word, "phylactery" is just Greek for "amulet". It's not even a Hebraic word. Jews themselves, it appears, call it "Teffilin". I could understand the criticism if a lich's phylactery was called "Teffilin", but that isn't the case.
The phylactery in D&D is described EXACTLY like a Teffilin and phylactery is the very first definition given in the dictionary. There is zero doubt here about what is being talked about.
