pre-ontology

is being in such a way that you have a stand on your being. It is not being theoretical, but accounts for the sort of stuff out of which you could form a theory or a discipline

ontological and that's just a terminological distinction but it's very important ontology is the explicit understanding of being it's an ology like like the genealogy or geology or whatever it's a low ghost it's a story of explicit theoretical I'm not sure theoretical scribe write an explicit story about existence in this case would be to be on to logical and Heidegger is doing ontology being in time is ontology but most people don't do ontology and now so he needs another word for all that we've just been talking about you having somehow a stand on your being an issue or being related to yourself and having some sense of that and manifesting that what are you going to call that if not ontological well he just calls it pre ontological meaning that's the sort of stuff out of which you could form a theory or a discipline I guess I theory is too bad because it sounds like you just sort of stand back from it all and it's very important in Heidegger it's hard to say
