Absolutely.

If you simulated a human brain by the atom, would you think the resulting construct would NOT be? What would be missing?

I think consciousness is simply an emergent property of our nervous system, but in order to express itself "language" is obviously needed and thus requires lots of complexity (more than what we typically see in animals or computer systems until recently).
