Its not my area of expertise, though!
>I don't understand you distinction between 'social sense' and 'duty'.
>Isn't 'duty' a socially imposed norm? And isn't 'morality' too?
This gets into ethics. I'd say if you follow a code out of "duty" it isn't a question of morality (following Kant, I think, who argued that we should obey God's laws because God is good, not just because he is God).
>Is a Humakti's 'honour' related to having a social conscience?
Not necessarily.
>Would it be true to say that members of ANY cult could be
>psychopaths?
Definitely. Even Chalana Arroy, IMO. (Assuming that initiation doesn't weed out these people).

P.S. Jeff thought this was getting off topic, but I'm not sure.
