Dear Sister,
While you have exceptional
cognitive skills for a mere
woman, I am afraid that I cannot see much success in your nomination. The Nobel committee is very strict that a deceased person is
not eligible to be nominated.

The posthumous rules changed in 1974. Before 1974, a person could be awarded a prize posthumously if he or she had already been nominated, which was the case with Erik Axel Karlfeldt (Nobel Prize in Literature 1931) and Dag Hammarskjöld (Nobel Peace Prize, 1961). Under the 1974 Statute changes, the prize may only go to a deceased person if the recipient dies between the time the award is announced and the date the prize is awarded (December 10)

We must now assess if
Moses died before the nomination. As it turns out, he
did.
Deuteronomy 34:5-6
So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the LORD. And he buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, over against Bethpeor: but no man knoweth of his sepulchre unto this day.
We should also ask if Moses was a
True Christian™ and as it turns out, he
wasn't. He was only a
Jew who did not accept
Jesus Christ as his personal savior. Despite his staggering CV in medicine, he is most likely in
Hell receiving
tungsten enemas as I write this.
Thank you anyway for your only slightly uneducated contributions (but exceptionally good for a mere
woman), dear
Sister. It is likely that this deceased rule will eventually
change when the Nobel Committee is taken over by the
True Christian™ community and then we might see also some of the
Apostles awarded with the Prizes.
Yours in Christ,
Elmer
