I'm not completely sure what all the differences are, but it appears that Protestantism is more compatible with capitalism than Catholicism. For one thing, Pentecostalism requires a person to make a conscious decision to join the decision. For Catholics the decision is made before a person is self-aware. This 'creates' a much stronger sense of free choice. Pentecostalism also doesn't involve an international hierarchy with centralized control. Pentecostalism does provide a better 'fix' than Catholicism. Catholicism is anti-individualist in its social philosophy.
