Christians in modern America pick and choose what they want to believe and back.
Take Gay mar rage. They get their beliefs mainly from Leviticus and then ignore what is a couple pages away about women not allowed to work and using poly blends.
Take what you want and throw away the rest is modern belief.

Any act that is against the Word and Will of God is concidered a sin.... sin is to be avoided as much as possable by those who follow the Word and Will of God.... The Law of God is only binding on those who are His people.. those of The True Christian Faith... all others, while on this mortal world, are free to get-away with any thing they can under the law of man.

The Bible is not specific as to all possible good or evil things.
It seems that the most important thing would be to measure whatever it is against the character of Christ and God. In other words...what would Jesus do etc.

Jesus specifically died to free us from the letter of the law, and according to Paul, all things are lawful for me, but not all things are expedient.
When one is led of the Spirit, one will neither violate the law, nor do anything contrary to it. Therefore, love God with all your heart and do as you please. What you have written above allows for just the sort of loopholes an unconverted, legalistic sinner needs in order to justify himself.

We live under the Spirit, who gives freedom. As Paul put it, "Everything is permissible, but not everything is beneficial."
We choose to avoid some things because they're isn't any point in doing it, not because we "can't" do it.

Titus 1:15 & 16
To the pure, all things are pure, but to those who are corrupted and do not believe, nothing is pure.
