God is the very breath of every living individual in this planet. It is in him alone that we move and have our being. GOD Bless you KAKA, and I wish you every success in your life.With your status as a celebrity, there is nothing more glorifying and powerful than what you have done.

Anyone can receive Jesus! young, teenager, or adult. Its God working in their lives at any time. it just so happens that young people come to the realisation of a saviour sometimes easier than older people because they are still innocent. younger people are alot open to what God is saying to them. Jesus even said himself, 'unless you become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven' Matt. 18:3. this means that to be humble and innocent before God like a child is humbled and innocent before their parents, and accept they need Jesus to wash away their sins, they will not be able to enter into heaven because of their pride.

you see as we grow older we think we know it all and have no need for God. But there are things we cant explain and there are things we are in need of, that only God can save us from.

Christinaity is simple! so simple that even children can grasp. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ that he died for your sins, and you will be saved.

"Maybe we should club together and send him "The God Delusion" to help him overcome his mental disability and see the light.."

Rob Green

Equally perhaps, it is ironic that so many people rabidly believe 'the God Delusion', after enthusiasticly lapping it up as fuel to the fire of hatred or mockery of all things religious.

It's also ironic that whilst a player like Kaka can express his beliefs by being humble in a moment of glory, you feel the need to express yours by calling those of anyone else 'disease' and a 'mental disability'.

'If the church needs to use people like this...'

John Castro

I hardly think the church put him up to it. Reading his testimony it's a decision he made for himself.

I think it's fine that he should express his feelings after the game like this.

And to all those whinging about how 'religious nuts' get more coverage than 'clever atheists' - turn on your TV.

Lewis, Loughborough, England

Why shouldn,t Kaka celebrate the fact that he belongs to Jesus. Belonging to Jesus is brilliant, Through Him he has a friendship with the one who not only created him but also died for him taking the blame for all the wrong things he has ever done and can therefore look forward to eternity with him.This is available for all who will ask him into there lives as Lord (boss) and Saviour (saves us from the punishment we deserve).He is also true look up Isaiah ch 42 and ch 53 (700bc),Psalm 22 (1000bc),MIcah ch5v2 (680bc),zechariah ch11v12 (520bc) to name afew.

It seems this genius with his feet became "deeply religious" when he was 12.

Funny how so many get the disease when young and / or at a vulnerable stage of their lives.

Obviously indoctrination of the young still works very well - either that or he has yet to grow up , make use of his evolved brain and work things out for himself.

Perhaps being surrounded by footballers is unlikely to provide the outside stimulus needed to assist him.

Maybe we should club together and send him "The God Delusion" to help him overcome his mental disability and see the light..

Rob Green, Essex, England

It's so refereshing to see Kaka proclaiming his faith in God in an age when Chriatians are an endangered species in the West and an open profession of faith is somewhat viewed as akin to the possession of some illegal article or substance, at least in the eyes of the aggresively secularised media.

Here for once is a 'celebrity' who did not make news because of his debauch, hedonistic and glamourous lifestyle; booze, serial adultery, drug, divorce, homosexualism, murder or any of those things that the media is obsessed with, and ram down our throat.

May God's grace continue to uphold you Kaka.

Toba, SURREY, UK

One can only hope that one day Kaka will see the light. If the church needs to use people like this to attract more to the Christian faith, then they must be desperate indeed!

Jonathan Castro, Guildford, UK

God bless KAKA!

Rodney, Sao Paulo, Brazil

I agree with the first comment but not with Dr P Mulay's. His t-shirt isn't an attempt to bring religion into sport, it shows that his faith and his football are inseperable. The secular view that religion should be kept private is a failure to understand the concept behind any kind of faith.

Also, J. Hawkings - I think the media is largely anti religious and spends most of it's time supporting your view - so why not allow Christians a moment of positive publicity?

Matt, Derby,

Why would an athiest get media attention? What is there to report on someone who belives in nothing? J. Hawkings - What are you on about??

C Thompson, Edinburgh, Edinburgh

Well done Kaka, his T-shirt not only proclaiming his faith but gratitude for his gift. Thankfulness as an attitiude rather than entitlement is becoming so rare these days and is a sign of great psychological strength.
Being a christian is neither a guarantee of success on the pitch or great blessing but a relationship with Jesus maintains that sense of gratitude and awareness of grace which Kaka displayed so publicly.

Angus, Cleveland,Guisborough,

It is great to see that a footballer is openly expressing his faith. The thing is, from what I have read from the comments, people are acting like he is forcing religion down their throats! Give the guy a break and let him show the love to the Lord of Lords.

People are making a scapegoat of Kaka, but they are not mentioning the prayer meetings that happen at Portsmouth before matches. If young Christian people were to look up at Kaka and see him as a role model to express their faith, then let it be!

Owen, Swansea, Wales

Ah, the atheistic fundamentalists are unhappy that the media are giving attention to someone who doesn't share the beliefs of Scientist turned Philosopher Richard Dawkins...
Bravo Kaka...and Bravo Rick Broadbent for covering the story - a refreshing piece of sports journalism...

aled williams, cardiff,

haha thats quality..

Sam, milton keynes,

Kaka´s attitude is in fact good news for all those who are committed to God and His only Son Jesus Christ.

Nonbelievers, climb out of the Stone Age!

Osnei, London,

Not fair to bring religion into sports.

Dr P Mulay, Wadebridge Cornwall,

Is he trying to provoke the non-faithful into some sort of rebellion? Good news for church leaders / bad news for the realists.

Would you have given the same coverage to someone who didn't believe in the existence of God?

Or to someone who was vehemently anti-religious, wearing an anti-religion t-shirt, on the grounds that it is the main reason behind why the world is so screwed up? Athiests just don't get the same amount of coverage in the media do they?

Climb out of the dark ages, for the love of no God.

J. Hawkings, London, UK

Wait a minute ... so if Kaka openly admits that he "belongs to Jesus" - therefore presumably not to AC Milan - is this not another blatant example of third-party influence?

Liverpool should jump on the "Gang of Four"'s bandwagon and appeal for Milan to be expelled from this year's Champions League ... again.
