Hehe...to be honest I half-believed those too...not that everyone was a robot, but that everyone was a philosophical zombie. It wasn't until high school that I figured out that for all intents and purposes, I'm a philosophical zombie too.

But in my opinion, those really ARE normal childhood beliefs that are not the result of any neuropathology... beliefs that many philosophers still entertain in the form of solipsism.
