Sounds quite human to me.

Except people believe or they don't, or maybe something in between, but it's hardly a choice.

I've been living in California since I was four years old and I've heard the word "fib" for as long as I can remember.
Both my parents were originally from the Midwest, though (Oklahoma and Wisconsin), so it's possible I got it from them... but I'm sure I've heard lots of other Californians use that word.
Is it cold in here?:

I got it even if nobody else did.
It's possible to "choose" a working hypothesis.
I wonder what happens when religious humans try to proselytize AnthroPCs.

Perhaps, but belief is a conclusion, not a hypothesis.

For that matter, I could easily see an AI worshipping humans, and from there worshipping a creator of humans.
