Would you turn off your firewall because you don't understand how it
works? Or any security feature for that matter?
Invest a few hours of your life reading the documentation. There are
plenty of good examples listed below.
I've never had an SELinux problem I couldn't solve or work around in 2
minutes. Sometimes figuring out the *right* solution might take a little
longer, but turning it off is very rarely going to be the right solution.

and don't forget the definitive Red Hat documentation here:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/
SELinux User's and Administrator's Guide at the bottom of the page.
Download it and read it.
