Have you looked in /var/log/httpd/error.log to determine _why_ Apache is
failing to start? This would be a better solution than merely ripping
PHP out of the system.

Naturally php-foo will be dependent on the base php package itself. Try
finding which php extensions RPMs are installed and remove the lot in
one go via rpm -e <package> <package> ... etc.

You are trying to remove the RPMs as a non-root user. Switch to the root
user and reissue the rpm -e command.
