Well, we didn't see any reason to ask about the "cult inquisition" because we've pretty much satisfied ourselves on those issues by research and experience.
One of the main things about the Cs experiment is that they have constantly urged us to learn to do research, to think, to not anticipate things, pretty much inducing us to activate System 2 at all times (see; "Thinking, fast and slow..." and "Strangers to Ourselves" in cognitive sciences board) so we can testify to the fact that doing it makes it easier and more familiar and you CAN overcome your tendency to be a reaction machine to a very great extent.
Someone once asked me what was the most important thing I had learned from the Cs and it came to me in a flash: "That once I learn to think, I really don't need them." And that is true for everyone.
It does give me hope to observe that many people here on the forum who are doing the reading we recommend, practicing the exercises and projects we suggest, actually ARE developing in the same way! I notice that, less and less, I have to offer input on topics because the forum members work things out themselves coming to very good conclusions (even if, sometimes, they are just provisional until more data is acquired.)
I think that using "System 2" is closely equivalent to the "Awareness" that the Cs promote as one of the keys to accessing higher densities. It is certainly the key to survival on this one!
