How to use manifest in a sentence?

Question

Could i use manifest in a sentence for an essay like so.....

It is manifested in Gattaca that it is better for a society to value the imperfect individual than to seek a genetic excellence

Does manifest fit correctly in that sentence.... like im trying to prove my contention that it is better to value the imperfect individual.. thanks

Answer 1

It sits awkwardly in your sentence as a verb, but I think would read better as adverb. So replace by 'it is manifest in Gattaca that.....', where your meaning would be 'it is obvious/clear in..that....'. Read this to yourself and see how it sounds.
