He's probably talking about parallel universes or some crap like that. But normally God isn't even in any of these universes, he's outside it or some bollocks, so this really is a load of nonsense.

It could be possible that X exists, in theory, if a suitable environment Y exists; yet such a suitable environment may not possibly exist. More word games.

In this kind of logic, possible worlds is not the same as parallel worlds. In layman's terms, existing in a possible world means "possibly existing".
