Got off to a rough start when denouncing reductionist thinking. The basis of the argument seemed to be centered on the fact that we would never have a computer large enough to perform even relatively simple computations to let the reductionist theory play out, but that doesn't mean the reductionist explanation isn't possible in principle, it just means we could never hope to simulate it on a computer.
