If by "genetic manipulation" you mean "created from earth", I totally agree ! :)
Here is the verse from Genesis:
“Then the Lord God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.”
Genesis 2:7 NIV

Also the Hebrew word for man (adam) might be related to the Hebrew word for ground (adamah) according to New International Version comments.
Be blessed !
