Why did the Catholic Church set up their own Masonic fraternity with the pope as grand master?
There has never been a Masonic fraternity in the Catholic Church, much less one with the pope as grand master. Catholics are forbidden by the Church, under pain of automatic excommunication, from joining the Masons. Pope Benedict XVI, while he was still a cardinal, issued a document clarifying this position of the Church and stating that there has been no change in this policy.
