Could the Cocooned Man still be Shaw's Dad??

We are not far behind the Sci Fi my friend, sometimes Truth can be as unreal as Fiction. Look at the money our Goverments spend on chassing Oil, Minning for it and also on Wars etc etc. That money infesting into Robotics and by now we would not be all that far of Real Terminators by that i dont think as real as in the Movie i,e as far as Skin that Bleeds, and Sweats etc. But the making a actual Humaniod Robot that looks Human and moves about like one is not so far away. As far as creating life, again if we spent as much as we do on Finding Oil and Wars, i am sure by now or soon we could engineer many new creatures only Morale High Ground Stops us. Technically we are not far away from being able to modify genes to Create a Person and create every detail about them, change skin colour even Blue or Green, make them Taller. Its not behind Science to create hybrid animals, take a Hedgehog i am sure if Science wanted to we could find the genes that create the Spines and change them to Fur, and thus Change Hedgehogs from spikey but cute criters to love new cudley pets. Free Fuel again Science is not far of created renewable fuels from Water, why are we not well because they would make Oil worthless and if Oil is Worthless well the Worlds Economy and the Power that certain nations hold due to it would collapse.

Umm, perhaps Shaw's preacher of a father is shown in flashbacks to build the foundations of her character's beliefs? You know, those very same beliefs that will be shaken to the core during the events of the movie. Come on guys, this is a Ridley Scott movie not a Michael Bay movie. There will be actual character development and thematic elements as well as 'splosions and crazy plot twists.
