This is from a website listing various common Creationist arguments:

Creationist argument:"I’ll believe in evolution when a chimpanzee gives birth to a human."

Response: "That would upend our entire understanding of genetics, and disprove evolution for a couple reasons. For one, we don’t think humans came from chimpanzees; we think that humans and chimpanzees are cousins, so if a bonobo gave birth to a human, that would mean we were really wrong.

This kind of radical change in phenotype, from cognitive ability to physical appearance, is not at all what evolution predicts, especially not in one generation. We absolutely would not expect to see those kinds of changes in one single generation. We would expect a smooth gradient of change in the gene pool over successive generations."

Another Creationist on Quora making this argument:

"I have discovered a huge flaw in evolution. Humans give birth to humans, and monkeys give birth to monkeys, so a monkey could never have created a human. To where should I report my discovery so that this incorrect theory can be retracted?"

Look, if you can't read simple English and insist upon only engaging with the lowest hanging cherry-picked arguments, there's no need for me to get involved with your arguing yourself. 9_9

You're the one claiming Creationists don't make this argument. I've proven they do 3 times now. I think you're done. Run along now shorty.

Look, I know you can't keep up. It's okay.

I asked who and where, you told me, and I said "cherry-picking the lowest hanging fruit." Seems you had no comeback to that... or didn't understand simple English.

Providing examples as well as this very argument listed on a website of common Creationist arguments isn't cherry picking anything. You said they don't make this argument, and I proved they do. You fucked up again as usual by making a claim about something you are totally ignorant about. Now piss off.

If you could read simple English, you'd note that is a question... not a statement.
Illiterate midwit.

You questioned my claim that Creationists make this argument all the time. It's why you have been denying it for the last 6 posts despite me proving they do. You can't lie and backpedal your way out of this one. Just admit you were wrong like a man and everything will be alright. Then get lost.

Is that what you think happened? 9_9

You're done dipshit.

It's really a shame that you've grown so delusional or increasingly illiterate that you can have these arguments with yourself and still blame others for your midwit misapprehension.
