I think our universe might be nothing more than a white hole on the opposite end of a black hole in an antimatter universe.

Interesting idea, but not one that has been seriously proposed. A black hole only has three independent physical properties: mass, charge and momentum. Not sure how you'd turn antimatter into our matter.
It was thought for awhile, back in the early days of high energy astrophysics (the 1960s), that quasars might be the other end of a wormhole from a black hole. Unfortunately, quasars have been identified as active galactic nuclei and not the outflow from a black hole.

I promised you an answer to your question and finally got back home from 2 weeks in Florida (which was a LOT cooler than Atlanta or Grayson!) - driving up I-75 between Valdosta and Macon the car's thermometer got up to 116 degrees while I was driving at 75MPH. That's HOT!
It's not an easy question to answer, but I would be happy to give it a shot if you are still interested.
