What is SELinux, do I need it?

I searched the forum for what SELinux is and came up with old outdated threads that link to pages on sites that have been moved or deleted.

What is SELinux and why do I need it? I'm new to Fedora, btw. Just trying to find out why I keep getting errors that SELinux picks up. Are they errors I need to fix? It's a fresh install of F16 gnome with cinnamon installed and that's what I'm using (cinnamon).
