They filter quite a bit of auto complete stuff, whether they chose to filter these things manually or automatically I don’t know, but it goes far beyond just the religious filters. Try some profanity for instance.
Try “I ha”, “I hat”, “I hate” and “I hated”, you’ll see it doesn’t give results for “I hat” or “I hate”, which leads me to believe it’s at least somewhat automatic, though it might require human approval.
