if you can show me a blockchain that says the same thing I'll have 100% faith in all of you with 1+ confirmations.

Only if the web of trust:

a) eventually links to someone you personally know and trust

b) has not been compromised, intentionally or carelessly

Even if those are the case, after enough hops in the trust graph trust gets pretty diluted.

I don't need to have faith, I have a smart contract for that.
