It shouldn't cause any trouble if you set to permissive mode. Can you 
explain what problems you are having?

Run the following command as root to verify the mode

# getenforce

Can I just command "yum remove selinux"?

SELinux is not a single package. You can remove the policy files but the 
SELinux library is used by many core packages and cannot be removed 
easily. See previous discussions in this list in the archives for more 
details.
