Just a point of curiosity, The Silence is a religious order, just like the Anglican Marines and the Headless Monks, now, are the Monks headless for a reason beyond religious indoctrination?
No head = no eyes or brain - does that maybe counter the Post hypnotic suggestion used by the white Silents ?
Possibly a way of stopping them from taking over this order of Silence completely?

You destroy that you destroy the monks. That's my take on it and remember when they fought the angels the Doctor said that this is the FINAL resting place of the headless monks... I find that interesting that he said that so does he play a part in their downfall, which makes no sense since he already mentions it in a past episode..

Which meant creating reasons for them being headless... And yes, that means they sacrifice their heads (the source of distracting thoughts) leaving them to follow their "religious" faith (i.e. their hearts).Go home aliens, go home!!!!

Doctor Who has about as much scientific validity and realism as Futurama. Don't worry about it, enjoy the fantasy, the story, the characters.
Hang on a minute...headless monks, heads in jars...the monks are the bodies of celebrities in the New New York Head Museum!And now it's time for one last bow, like all your other selves. Eleven's hour is over now... the clock is striking Twelve's.
