christians who turn away from God and back to their sins end up in hell, if they do not repent before they die. God will forgive anything, but we must ask.

When you say go back to their sin...do you mean completely denying the faith and no longer professing Christ?
If this is what you mean, then they were never saved to begin with. They had a false conversion. Then they would suffer in Hell.
Once you are saved, if you are a true Christian you will never fall away. You will sin, there is no doubt of that, but when you do sin you will eventually repent and stop doing it.
Look at David. God called him a man after His own heart. David sinned gravely. He lusted after Bethsheba and fornicated with her. Then when he got her pregnant he tried covering it up by having her husband sleep with her when he came back from war. That didn't work out so David had him killed. That was some serious sin. However, when confronted in his sin, David repented and grieved over what he had done.
There will always be forgiveness for your sin, you must be willing to ask and truly repent.

Yes. The Hebrews writer says, "If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received a knowledge of the truth, there remains no more sacrifice for sin" which is a pretty clear indication that our sins are no longer covered by the blood of Christ, and therefore we would be in danger of hell fire.
Interesting question.

Yes and no. Jesus tells us that when you come to God, you can't be removed from him by anything or anyone. Christians still sin, but they are in God's family, and God doesn't kick people out of his family.
Now, having said that, it doesn't give Christians a license to sin. If you came to Jesus to repent and change your life, that's one thing. If you wanted repentance because you had everything else, or because you wanted to fit in with everybody, your heart will give you away, and your salvation is probably not real. In that case, you can live as sin-free as you like, and Jesus will still not acknowledge you when you come before the Lord.

In the bible it mentions that one who knows god and turns away from him is far worse off than someone who never knew him...(if I find it I'll post it)
So, if there is a hell, then yes. I think they do go there.
2Peter2:20If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in it and overcome, they are *worse off at the end than they were at the beginning. 21It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than to have known it and then to turn their backs on the sacred command that was passed on to them. 22Of them the proverbs are true: "A dog returns to its vomit,"[f]and, "A sow that is washed goes back to her wallowing in the mud."
*if you are worse off than before knowing Christ, how bad is that, since if one doesnt know christ he goes to hell...

You answer your own question.
To turn away from God is to be in hell. Period.
Turn back to him, all who are sinners, while there is still time.

Not if they are catholics, I think the catholic church abolished the concept of hell a while ago. On the other hand, they still accept the existence of the devil. He just doesn't have anywhere to live any more. ( I may have got this the wrong way round. Possibly they got rid of the concept of the devil, but still acknowlege the reality of hell. Only without it's landlord.)

I'm pretty sure Christians who fart in church without repenting for it go to hell, so from a christian standpoint, apostacy is definately a big no-no.
