<Naturalism ("nature is all there is") is necessarily materialist and does rule out any divine involvment.>

Not that I can see:

en.wikipedia.org

IF God is everywhere/all the time/ immanent, god IS nature... or infuses nature...

<When you talk about God's immanence as an explanation for anything you've left naturalism>

IF that is true it's just semantics... and his point is just wrong in that he's using an improper usage of Naturalism.

His point does NOT rule out God immanet... only a god far away who swoops in and manipulates things occasionally... or more appropriately, created early on and now lurks in the background.
