The major flaw in your proof is the supposition that a computer program can be written which replicates exactly the behavior of a human brain. This is somewhat like asking someone to draw a perfect circle--it can't be done, philosophically speaking. Regardless of how the problem is approached, the uncountably dense set of points which makes up a circle cannot be drawn with complete exactness: the lines of the circle you draw will have a certain thickness, not accurately representing the single point thickness of a mathematically defined circle. Also, the surface roughness of the paper causes what should be a strictly two-dimensional object to protrude slightly into the third dimension. The best we can do is create an approximation good enough that we neglect any error. The same is true in replicating the function of the human brain.
