A problem with certain fundamnetalist mindsets is an implicit dualism i.e. spirit good, physical world bad.

The "world" is often used in the Bible to describe things apart from Christ and in modern reformed thought this passage would be seen to establish the necessity of a Christian Worldview whereby we enjoy the physical reality because and through God, not seperate from him.

Even spiritual pursuits that are seperated from God are sinful, taking pride in your own purity being one of them.
