(They went to a Catholic school, so theological reasoning came naturally). He started from the position that everything that exists is in the mind of God, and since God is the creator then being in the mind of God necessarily means something exists. God is omniscient, therefore knows everything authors come up with as soon as they come up with it, therefore all creative works appear in the mind of God, therefore they exist. He used this line of reasoning to prove that Narnia, Barsoon, and all the other realms of imagination were no more fictional than we are.

Just to make it clear, my answer was actually based on Popperian cosmology instead of a religious point of view, but that religious one is fascinating as well. Of course, as people have mentioned here, itīs a bit flawed, but fascinating nevertheless.

(Much laughter.) But if it's an infinitely large universe and there ae only so many ways to arrange matter, that means somewhere way out there is QC-world, or Scary Go Round world, or Chip & Dale Rescue Rangers. An exciting though alarming thought.
Or, well, probably not.
Surgoshan:
The universe may be infinite, but that doesn't mean it's infinitely large.
Thaes:
If it wasnīt infinitely large, what would be behind its borders?
