Now, stop and ask yourself how do you know that? Isn't there anything in the 
bible that can be interpreted as "God oversees marriage"?

The video isn't attacking the bible. It's attacking the interpretation of 
the bible that includes "God has something to do with the appropriateness of 
any given marriage". If you don't believe that, you're not the target 
audience. It's not a straw man. It's just an argument you're not making.
