Is it possible to design a computer program that accurately models the behavior of atomss?

I've heard that the quantum theory of mechanics isnt that accurate or stable, so is there a way to derive an algorithm that determines how atoms react with one onother,(thru plain and simple empirical data), use this to design a computer program, and use this computer program to model chemical reactions?

Is it possible to design a computer program that accurately models the behavior of atomss?
there are programs out there that model molecular behavior, finding the HOMO and LUMO's and visualizing them, fidning dipoles and lowest energy conformation (Spartan for example) the problem is when the molecule become bigger and more complex it takes longer and longer for the program to solve anything really....
Reply:It's interesting,, but waaay over my level of understanding yet I still read about things like that.
