"Non sequitur. DNA from the same source is essentially e same whether in vivo or in vitro. You and the jury may choose to believe differently."

It's not a non sequitur and I'm not asking the jury; I am asking you.

Can natural selection explain how inanimate DNA becomes animated, or is SOME OTHER THEORY required for that explanation?

DNA is a molecule. There is no such thing as animation of DNA anymore than there is an animation of common table salt.
