You are living proof of creationist ignorance.
1. Antibiotics are used against bacteria, never against a virus--except when some ignorant parent badgers a physician into "doing something" for their kid's viral infection, an error that has helped to prompt antibiotic resistant TB, STDs, staph, etc.
2. Bacteria almost always develop resistance to a given antibiotic, and that resistant form becomes the dominant strain. How is that not better from the bacterial point of view?
3. If you don't know the difference between viral and bacterial infections, where do you get off telling anyone anything about any scientific theory? You are demonstrating (like many before you) that the typical reason for creationist persistence is, in fact, ignorance.

Real things always push back.
