Q: What is the safest version of Java?
One of my macs currently uses a depreciated version of Java 6 with browser access turned off. Should I be safe? Will the version 7-8 offered by java themselves be more secure?
MacBook Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11.2), Java

Yes.
It is the browser plugin/extension that is a risk.
Normal applications written and n Java are no more risky than ones written in Objective-C, Swift, C, C++, etc...
