Am I breeding super bacteria in my kitchen sink? If not, why?

So I cook basically all of my meals every day.  This leads to the generation of a lot of dishes, and in turn the semi-frequent cleaning of said dishes. 

First off, I avoid using anything anti-bacterial in my home.  I don't want to contribute to the strengthening of bacterial strains through inherited resistances.  In short, I took high school biology years ago, and I'm trying to be a good global citizen.   

However, unless I misunderstand the process, washing with hot water and lathery(?) dishsoap kills bacteria through heat and suffocation.  How is this any different?

I have a giant metal petri dish in my house that's filled with consumable organic matter on a daily basis, and then washed maybe every other day.  Shouldn't I be breeding strains of extremely hardy thermophiles?  

I'm an engineer, so I'm scientifically literate in the basic sense, but most of medical science is sorcery to me.

No, and the reason is because antibiotics and soap and water work in different ways. Antibiotics kill bacteria by messing up some biochemical process in the cell, breaking down enzymes and pathways unique to bacteria.  Soap and hot water physically remove bacteria, and antiseptics like alcohol and bleach destroy them (and any other living cell).  It's much easier for bacteria to evolve to tinker with their metabolic pathways a little than it is for them to deal with the other sorts of more serious disturbances.

To make an engineering analogy, if a bacteria is a computer you are trying to disable, antibiotics are the equivalent of hacking the computer to make it nonfunctional.  Soap and water are the equivalent to coming along with a bulldozer and scooping away the computer.  Alcohol and bleach are the equivalent of shooting the CPU with a shotgun.  All of these will get rid of the unprepared computer, but it's a lot easier to upgrade the software to prevent hacking exports than it is to keep someone from physically scooping up the computer or making it shotgun-proof.
