"Baptism of desire is explicit", 'the baptism of desire is physical' refers to the belief or inference of most Catholics.

Can you define what you mean when you say "baptism of desire is explicit" and "physical".  I want to make sure I understand what you mean by these terms.

Lionel: 
"baptism of desire is explicit", 'the baptism of desire is physical' refers to the belief or inference of most Catholics. The inference knowingly or unknowingly is that there are people saved with the baptism of desire (with or without the baptism of water) and these cases are physically visible, they are objectively known in the present times. It is inferred that we know the names of these persons and we can physically see and meet them. This is the inference made when it is assumed that the baptism of desire is an exception to the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus and that every one needs to enter the Church except for those saved with the baptism of desire.
When it is said every one needs to enter the Church except for those saved with the baptism of desire or blood or saved in invincible ignorance , it is inferred that these cases are visible.Since if they were invisible cases they would not be exceptions or relevant to all needing to formally enter the Church, to avoid Hell and go to Heaven.

T (hypothetical theological speculation) has nothing to do with EENS since there is no E (explicit case)

I am waiting for the contemporary magisterium to interpret magisterial documents with Feeneyism : then they will be in harmony with the perennial magisterium and the magisterium of Church documents
