Im looking at this and thinking 'What is it these people want?' What is an acceptable basis for modern law?

If Theonomy is to be rejected because
'The calling of the church is not political, but spiritual, and a political calling actually weakens the gospel of Christ by deterring her from her true calling--preaching the gracious gospel of Jesus Christ.
then shouldnt this also apply to any system of civil law? If seeking to positively apply biblical Law is by nature an error then isnt it just as much of an error to claim some other standard should be OR/NOT applied? To put it a third way; If the church cant say God's law is right how can we say any other is wrong?
