Bushrangers. Gods Of Heaven And Hell
By Dirk Bontes
()
About this ebook
Much of this book consists of quotes - mainly from Wikipedia articles about in particular Bushrangers, with some digressions about Irish / English highwaymen and USA Outlaws. This book makes sense of the information in these quotes and shows how it relates to the gods of Heaven and Underworld and / or what it divulges about them.
The book is written from the perspective that an earlier human species - that of the pagan gods - attained an advanced scientific and technological civilization and that they decided to create a new, improved human species - us - in their laboratoria. It is written from the perspective that Heaven and the Underworld were not imaginary places, but real locations: the first a habitat on top of a space elevator, the second a huge habitat in space. The events happened approximately four thousand years ago.
This book is an independent publication of chapter 41 in my book about Black Pete. It can be read independently from the larger book. Its Introduction is identical to the one in my book about Dick Turpin.

There are quite a lot of quotes in this book, often from Wikipedia. In all cases I claim scientific necessity and assert therefore to have violated no copyrights.
Chapter 2. Introduction
This book comprises a very small part of my E-book De essentie van Zwarte Piet
(The Essence Of Black Pete). It is the continuation of a section about the highwayman Dick Turpin. That latter part was published as an independent booklet as well. This booklet's Introduction and that of the Dick Turpin booklet are (nearly) identical.
The Black Pete book presumes the existence of an earlier human species four thousand years ago, a human species that had achieved a very advanced science and technology: the pagan gods. These people built a 36 000 kilometers high space elevator that enabled them to transport people and cargo to the geostationairy orbit. On top of the space elevator they built their Heaven(s).
Diametrically opposite the space elevator these people built a huge space habitat on the other side of the Earth, also in geostationary orbit: the hidden world of the Orcus, also known as the Realm of the Dead, and as Hell. The Orcus had a second space elevator attached to it, the Tartarus, that transported people and cargo to an orbit that was 72 000 kilometers higher again. The Tartarus had another, smaller space habitat as its terminal: the Tityos. Here the 'dead' and cargo boarded spaceships that transported them to further removed destinations in outer space.
The Orcus had the shape of a cylinder. It spun around its axis and thereby it generated an artificial gravity. This Pipe is Black Pete's chimney (pipe); in the magical paradigm there exists a magical connection between the Orcus and ordinary chimneys.
In mythology the Orcus is also referred to as a cave. It was also described as an open space in the midst of a forest. However, the night sky itself was also regarded as a cave.
The Terran space elevator was called the world tree or the world mountain; it had many names, among which Yggdrasill and the Olympus. The ruling supreme pagan god ruled Yggdrasill and humanity from his Heaven on top of the Terran space elevator. There was a time when the god known in the Netherlands as Saint Nicholas was this supreme god. Before his rule in Heaven, however, he had ruled over the Orcus.
The Orcus was the pagan gods' other centre of power. All denizens of this space habitat turned pitchblack, including the god who ruled the Orcus, because the Orcus was powered by the harsh ultraviolet light that was emitted by the Sun. This intense ultraviolet radiation entered the space habitat through a transparent patch in its hull. Presumably aided by medications that enhanced the production of the protective melanine molecules, the skin-burning ultraviolet radiation caused the skin of the inhabitants to turn pitchblack. Accordingly, when Saint Nicholas ruled the Orcus, he also must have been pitchblack – hence his name of Black Pete.
When Saint Nicholas ruled over Yggdrasill and over humanity, he had himself cloned and had the clone changed in such a way that the clone enjoyed eternal youth. This youth we know as the Moriaen. The Moriaen ruled the Orcus next and ever since we know him as our contemporary Black Pete.
The original pagan gods each had available to them only one of the four functionalities of the human mind; which are represented by the male archetypes of the gods: Odin, Vili, Vé and Thor. They considered themselves to be imperfect and they decided to create a superhuman being in their molecular biology laboratoria, a superhuman being who would have available to him all four of the functionalities of the human mind. They succeeded, but the brain size of the new human species remained the same size as their own, and consequently, having four times as much to do, each functionality was expressed at a level that was about four times lower than normal for a pagan god: the people of the new human species were morons.
Later they created another such superman: the god whom we now know as Saint Nicholas. The difference was that he could make optimal use of all of his four functionalities of the human mind; though presumably not at the same time. His clone, of course, had the same ability.
The E-book De Essentie Van Zwarte Piet
is about the Sinterklaas celebrations and in particular about the Moriaen and the many different expressions of that archetype, among whom are the German Struwwelpeter, the Harlequin, Pinocchio and Robin Hood.
Robin Hood was a kind of folkloristic robber and in Great-Britain these were often called highwaymen. Dick Turpin was one representant of such highwaymen.
Similar footpads from the English language culture area were called bushrangers in Australia, and outlaws in the USA.
Some pirates from the English language culture area presumably also belong to the same category of folkloristic robbers – but the arguments in favour of such cases often are too vague to come to definite conclusions.
