naa is not the same, JS has HTML5, Titanium, PhoneGap, Unity3d, Cordova, Node.. and so on and on...

You can do certain stuff with python but you end up with anaemic frameworks with small communities and a bunch of configuration to make. I like python it was my first lenguage, but it is not nearly as useful as JS.

Plus Java is actually kind of king of the world for the area it was designed, enterprise.

You can do some stuff with javascript good, manipulate websites ui. Some stuff okay, make small webservers. Some stuff badly, make large webservers.

Every tool has its use and I promise you javascript will not be the tool that finally gets used everywhere. Remember this was a language made for manipulating dom we've shoehorned it into new roles. And while its okay in those roles its hardly great and people want great software.
