You can't blame him for having trust in Neo. Shinn is just a kid, he's an idiot. But he is doing what he thinks is best for the situation and especially to protect Stellar.

I don't like Shinn cuz he is a brat, but you're trying to make Shinn out to be the most selfish person ever, which is completely untrue.
Actually Mut@t@ thats exactly what I said Shinn handed over Stellar to Neo so he would feel better that is 100% what I am saying.

But lol,

if he went with Stellar to the EA base he would...

1) abandon all his friends (and the promise with Rey would be broken)
2) DIE

That just makes no sense. He wants to help Stellar out no matter what but there must be limits.
"Setting up Neo" ????? I am betting he actually WANTS to trust Neo since he has you know... NO OTHER CHOICE THAN TO DO SO...?

You seriously need to contain your obvious hatred for Shinn and stop making up such ridiculous theories.

Edit: Also, what Mut said (even though it was roughly the same thing... hoho)
As a matter of fact to Terra and Mut@t@ I agree he would abandon his shipmates however I really don't see Shinn's relationship with everyone as true friendship more of a means to an end for his revenge. Also I do agree it would be almost certain death to go over to the EA ship to attempt to protect Stellar however it would be a selfless act instead of a selfish one. That basically makes out everything I have stated. Shinn took the easy way out instead of actually protecting her he left her to Neo so that he could do so. If Neo does not protect her who does Shinn blame? The answer is obviously not himself he blames Neo and in turn by handing her over to Neo in such a fashion requesting a promise that rationally Neo could not keep is simply a way to avoid guilt on himself when what he knows will happen will.

I agree Shinn is just a kid and more then likely does not have the kind of adult reasoning I'm using on the situation. That is exactly why I don't believe Shinn has yet to grow in the slightest and will not until he accepts responsability for his own actions. Heck Shinn made matters WORSE during the last battle and then attacked Athrun who was the only reason shinn didn't have himself shot down and more then likely killed in that battle. Shinn mearly uses everyone else as a excuse while not taking responsability for any failures why he takes credit for any success he had.

I also don't believe anyone can argue that Kira wouldn't have slaughtered Shinn had Athrun not taken one for the team defending him.
