I guess that Merrin, being a successful exorcist had the ability to repel the demon, something Regan could not do, and Karras invited the demon to enter him, Merrin did not.
I think that would be out of the question For the Demon, In a Sense, Merrin is untouchable, The Demon can’t Enter, Merrins Faith is to Strong, it acts as a Force field, Thats Why it uses other tactics, It dosen’t have to put on a Show For Merrin, They already Know what eachother can Do, thats Why the Demon hates and fears Merrin.
But Damian is far differn’t, He barely has a grip on his Faith, Hes both emotionaly and Spiritualy vulnerable, For the Demon there is a Chance of taking Damian down, However we Know how it turns out.
I don’t think Regan needs explination here.I just thought of something if the demon wanted to have vengence on Merrin why didnt it simply just possess Merrin? Wouldnt the demon enjoy having Merrin in torment like that??
The demon wanted far more than vengeance on Merrin (I still don’t believe Merrin as the primary target). It also wanted to punish Karras for his lack of faith, Chris for her divorce, Karl for his lies etc.
Also remember Blatty’s explanation of the demon as being God’s unwitting tool of bringing about Karras’ salvation.
