So any idea of 'god' is a product of the mind and independent of anything that is being understood. A skeptical mind (this is what I mean by skeptical) doesn't form beliefs about whether such ideas are true or false.

How is this any different than say 'time,' which seems to exist in apriority within the mind?

The nature of time is a toughie but I think the bit you mean is a necessary part of the way we perceive the world. Thats a different type of concept to one about something that created the world so that we could perceive it, no belief in such an entity is required for the perception.
