"Bacteria mutation research does not prove evolution."
Did the bacteria gain new useful traits? Yes. Are these traits stored in the genome, meaning will the bacteria pass these traits on to their offspring? Yes.
Then this is by definition, evolution.
What you are objecting to - my friend - is speciation, not evolution. Which is impossible for anyone to object to as artificial speciation is a thing. The only difference is that there is an artificial selection going on instead of a natural one.
