No, y ou're assuming at the very start that Computationalism is false and then going on from there. Computationalism means that every subjective experience about you can be duplicated by computations made with a physical system. Not almost everything, EVERYTHING. But then you say: "*Nothing can duplicate a first person view from its first person point of view, with or **without computationalism**.*" Computationalism says intelligent behavior can be duplicated by computations performed by a physical system, and Darwin's Theory demands that consciousness is a byproduct of intelligence, so your statement contradicts both the meaning of Computationalism and Evolution.
