He pointed out that the experiment you're citing showed weight loss
in some, but not all cases, at the moment of death,

All four cases showed sudden weight loss at or near the time of death.

and it also showed similar sudden losses of weight at other times
after death in some cases.


They were not "sudden" since these weight changes were were measured
MINUTES after death, not seconds.


It is not impossible for sudden changes to happen minutes after
death...


But something very unusual happened at the time of death in all four cases.
Two of the four had NO anomalous weight change which happened after that.
The anomalous weight changes of the other two afterwards must be due to
some other phenomenon than the change that occurred simultaneously with
death.


Did you even consider the possibility that the soul leaves the body some
time after death rather than right at death? If the existence of the soul
is independent of the existence of a living body, why does the soul have
to leave the body right at death? ;-)
