Why wouldn't David have simply plotted a course to Earth and dropped the goo?
He doesn't have enough goo. Spoiler
He used it all to wipe out the Engineers on Paradise.
Plus it's a mission to colonise other planets. David wouldn't just simply change its course back towards Earth.
Sorry, I probably didn't explain that very well.
So David and Shaw are on the Juggernaut. The ship is set on a course to paradise. At some point on the journey David gets his head attached and decides humans aren't worthy to spread throughout the stars. He's got a Jugger full of black goo, and the only thing standing in his way is a woman who is about 100lbs soaking wet.
At this point why not set course for Earth and finish the LV223 Engineer's mission? Why go to paradise at all? If he goes because he is curious, I get that.
Why go to Paradise and goo the joint as your first act?
Good question, the only reasons i can come up with is, humans made him, the engineers ripped his head off, the engineers maybe made us, his ego wants the creators of these lowlife humans, why kill its servants when you can kill their god.
The humans arent much of a mystery to him, he sees the pot of gold with the engineers i think.

Shaw is partially / temporarily shielded from David.
Since her Faith baffles and interests him.
He can understand the concept, but not feel it.
Could be part of his motivation to create / recreate super xenomorphs to exterminate the heathen virus plaguing the galaxy.
Religion is a major aspect of so many wars over the years.
Or is it, isnt everything you stand for or willing to defend at all cost a religion? i think religion isnt really the problem, its how far are you willing to go, to defend your beliefs and how tolerant are you willing to be to other people and beliefs and things. Some people are prepared to fight someone if they cant have their dinner at six, its their belief their culture.
