I would not call Java strongly typed
because you must cast all over the place
(http://www.pragmaticprogrammer.com/cgi-local/pragprog?JavaIsUntyped).

For a stronyly statically typed languages, look at Haskell or OCaml.
There you almost never must escape the type system because they are
more expressive.
