Benedict XIV was definitely an expert in questions of beatification and canonization.
It was further said above, that the Popes have always made their authority accepted at canonizations, even in cases of a canonization which originates with a cult introduced in one diocese, which then crosses into another diocese and finally is extended throughout the whole church.
It is also (a matter for the Pope) to grant by means of (his) permission, that in some city or diocese, or in certain other places, a religious cult is demonstrated to some servant of God which is entirely clearly such a one [cult] through his martyrdom or through (his) confession.

Encyclical of Pope Benedict XIV promulgated on June 29, 1748.

It is his duty to suspend the execution of such letters and to notify the Roman Pontiff and his officials of the reason for the suspension, as Pope Alexander III prescribed in his letter to the Archbishop of Ravenna.

 ~Destroy Freemasonry~ - Pope Benedict XIV 1740-1758
As a matter of fact, Benedict XIV, had already denounced Masonry as being Counter-Morality in connection with the Order of Felicity of Avignon, a Secret Society of debauchers; among themselves the members of this Society spoke only in a kind of slangy language usually used by sailors.
The Pope mentions it twice in his correspondence.
Women and men from the Avignon Society went to it, and, doubtless, upon their return they will organize a Freemasonic Lodge as they once had already attempted to do under the name of Society of Felicity; they might have succeeded had it not been for the zeal of the Archbishop.

Benedict is being warned by numerous anti-Muslim groups he must deal with the challenge of Islam.
But given his 78-years, Benedict XVI’s reign will likely be short, an interregnum after John Paul the Great, and a gentle transition to altered policies brought in by a new, younger pope with less traditional ideas.
