Fr.Pierpaolo Petrucci's error has a bearing on the Nicene Creed

Fr.Pierpaolo Petrucci considers 'imperfect communion with the Church'(UR 3) as explicit and visible. This has a direct bearing on the Nicene Creed.
Since there are known, visible, objective exceptions to the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus for him, it means every one does not need the baptism of water in 2014 for salvation. In the Nicene Creed we pray ' I believe in one baptism for the forgiveness of sin'.
For the SSPX, Italy District Superior there is not one known baptism, the baptism of water for the forgiveness of sin but there are three or more known baptisms, the baptism of desire and blood. Then without the baptism of water but with being in imperfect communion with the Church a Christian can be saved !
This is a rejection of the Nicene Creed and the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus with alleged visible exceptions in the present times.
Fr.Pierpaolo Petrucci could resolve the problem by accepting the baptism of desire and being saved in imperfect communion with the Church as being implicit. This would not be a denial of the baptism of desire. He would be accepting the baptism of desire as implicit and denying an explicit baptism of desire, which is irrational.
