Coldfusion does a lot to make your life easier - why reinvent cfmail, cfquery etc. using java? If you have an application which needs to be exposed in multiple ways and integrated with other systems then it may make sense to write the domain objects in cf. If you have java programmers on the team or existing java libraries then again it may make sense writing some of your application in java than in cfcs especially if you're familiar with UML and some of the code generation tools such as Enterprise Architect which will allow you to generate some of your code in java which can then be called from Coldfusion.
