I want to buy Father Robinson's magnum opus to simply understand how a person's soul is implicitly baptized?

Father, an engineer/priest/theologian, is most qualified to explain the nuances of the SSPX's mystical belief systems.
For example, That a Catholic baptism is universally inscribed in every person's heart. 
(See the SSPX's "Open Letter to Confused Catholics", page 74).

Father's discourse must go beyond the epistemological and metaphysical truths which are the basis of Aristotelian-Thomistic thought ?  For example, Aristotle's De Anima, explained that a Soul is created from three substances (Matter, Form and the Compound).  A little later, Our Lord demonstrated how Original Sin was removed from Souls by the Sacrament of Baptism, using H20 matter.

Fast forward 2,000 years and most people are just too uneducated or dumbed-down to understand Karl Rahner's explanation of implicit, universal baptisms?  

I mean, how are our souls implicitly cleaned ?  Does a little Angel come in to do the work?

But not to worry tradcats.
Now we have a reality based, "Theological Science-guy".

An SSPX endorsed priest who can give us the technical details of how our Souls are implicitly cleansed of Original Sin.

I love this kind of thing. Although I appreciate their efforts, I also kind of hate that Protestants seem more vigorous in defending the Bible and Christianity against pseudo-scientists than Catholics are. I don't care about SSPX vs Rome in this. If he is on-point I will happily support the effort and continue to pray that more Catholics get on board to peel away the false mask of "scientific" theories.
The answers to these questions build an incredibly important natural base for the supernatural Faith in the minds of our children.

That was my reaction to the description too.  It sounds like it could be used for high school level.

I am absolutely not attacking a book I have not even read yet! This seems like a remarkable book and for that I applaud Fr. Robinson. However why can't the SSPX even mention that he entered a SSPX seminary? I guess it is obvious to most but it seems rather silly to omit this. 

Again, I am not trying to nit-pick but found this point strange.
