Not sure if this is related but have you tried clicking in the search
box on the logo/drop down arrow and then click on "Manage Search
Engines"? Bing is mentioned there. Perhaps you could try to click on
"Restore Defaults" or just remove Bing and everything you don't want.
I go to Manage Search Engines , I highlight Google and click Ok. I still
have the same problem.
I even removed Bing from the list but it still shows up as my home page when I restart firefox.
I think I give up on this.

Could it be a plugin that is messing with your settings? Have you
checked about:plugins?

I looked at about:plugins but I can't imagine a plugin hat would affect
the default home page. Do you
have a suggestion.

Have you tried stopping Firefox, renaming your Firefox profile and start Firefox again to see if the problem persists? I think you could try that with these steps after you have quit Firefox:

$ cd $HOME/.mozilla
$ mv firefox firefox.org

And start Firefox again. If the problem persists then move back the Firefox profile:

$ cd $HOME/.mozilla
$ mv firefox.org firefox

And perhaps you could try to reinstall Firefox?

$ sudo yum reinstall firefox
