How can DNA be an ACID if it is made out of BASE pairs?

Not everything's about hydrogen pressure in sentence. Not even slight doubt in my mind was expressed and it wasn't even funny or something mind would boggles with. It's acid because not because it's acidic, but because it has double oxygen bonds, even oh bonds, that's still acid.

" a molecule or other species which can donate a proton or accept an electron pair in reactions. "

Can donate a proton, it's acid.

" a conceptual structure or entity on which something draws or depends. "

A base pair.

There is no such thing as DNA. If you know anything about science, you know that if our bodies were full of acid, they would dissolve.
Always question the "official" story.

It has an acid behaviour because it has ortophosphoric acids in its structure (phosphate groups). But that is situational because in the cells sometimes it is condensed with histones, that neutralize the negative charges
