Antibiotic resistance is hardly evolution, clearly it’s been you all along that doesn’t understand science.

And speaking of Galileo...LOL... and the blind and those refusing to deal with the evidence and so on; don’t mind us chuckling at the irony of your choosing Galileo of all people, to contort yourself into a corner. Again:

DNA variation being selected for among a population such that those variations that the antibiotic is less effective against predominate in subsequent generations is EXACTLY evolution through natural selection of genetic variation.

Darwin made a prediction.

When you look at the DNA of bacterial populations you see what he predicted.

There is variation within a population subject to selective pressure and this causes adaptation.

DNA change is inevitable. Because evolution is defined as change in inheritance of a population - and that inheritance is a molecule subject to molecular change - evolution is inevitable.
