Are terms & phrases "fortresses" & "speculations and every lofty thing" in 2 Corinthians 10:3-6 broad enough to include human thoughts of sexual lust, infatuation, financial & material greed, distractions, idolization?

2 Corinthians 10:3-6
New American Standard Bible 1995
3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh, 4 for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but [a]divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses. 5 We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ, 6 and we are ready to punish all disobedience, whenever your obedience is complete.

It looks pretty all inclusive to me.
