These are the ones I think are 'meh'.... for the reason I stated above:

Does this activity promote godly attitudes and behaviors?

I don't think everything has to promote godly behavior. Just shouldn't really promote ungodly behavior. There is a difference.

Do I leave this activity more or less equipped for the spiritual life?

For reason stated above. Everything done doesn't have to be super-spiritual.

This one:

Does this activity appeal to my carnal nature, i.e., the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, or the pride of life?

Some things in life do appeal simply to our carnal nature. Buying a pretty new car, or eating a slice of chocolate cake. I think these things have to be done in balance. Following our carnal natures shouldn't be the lone goal of our lives (and it is for some people), but it doesn't mean that every single thing we do has to have some deep spiritual significance.
