Revert to an older version of Java

I need to have Java SE 6 installed on my Mac to run logisim. However, I have a newer version of java installed so logisim won't run. How can I get this newer version off of my Mac so i can download the older one? I have tried the following commands given on the Java/oracle website and am still not having any luck.

sudo rm -fr /Library/Internet\ Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin 
sudo rm -fr /Library/PreferencePanes/JavaControlPanel.prefpane

You don't need to uninstall the new java version. You can even use multiple java versions on your mac and switch between them, look at this:
