Well, there's Java, which is a full blown object oriented programming language, often used to build java applets that you can embed in a website a lot like flash movies, and then there's javascript which is what this forum is for, which is a client side scripting language often used to make interactive websites by manipulating the page content once it's in the browser.
Javascript has a totally different purpose to flash so it's impossible to compare, Java on the other hand is completely general purpose, so while yes you can make games and such in a Java applet, there's no point learning it if you know flash already, unless you need to do things that flash can't do well such as writing desktop applications.
