Lots of people working in IT don't understand that Java and JavaScript are almost completely unrelated to each other. The best explanation how similar they are would be to say in a non-techie way:
Yes, both are programming languages and belong to the programming world. However, aside from this apparently confusing similarity, the two languages could not be further from the same thing. Apart from some superficial syntactical similarities, they have nothing in common.
