Well - before that stupid american settlers revolted, her majesty the queen of England was a guarantee for stability. And then - all those crazy bastards came together and there was war and they formed unions that broke apart again and there was general disorder. What a mess. And just a century later they did a full civil war.
I dont know how one is to expect a revolution to happen by some protesters going on the strees in springtime and expecting a democratic society with peace and prosperity for everyone by fall.
This is going to take quite more time - maybe a bit less if outside help is given to organize a democracy.
One problem of democracy of course is that the conflicts people have with each other have to be dealt with rather than brutally opressed. If you believe the Hobbesian view that humans need a strong and powerful government to be ruled because otherwise they would just start to club each other to death, then I guess you better be in favour of dictatorships and monarchies and give up on that dream of democracy.
So I guess for Egypt it is time now to sort out the problems these groups have with each other. This certainly will not be comfortable but no one said that freedom is comfortable...

Oh and if the muslims are the vast majority, then this is reality - it shows that a democracy has itself some problems namely the dictatorship of the majority. The way to deal with this in a democratic state is however not by creating a "strong and benevolent leadership", but by protecting minorities by the invokation of humanitarian laws and a constitution founded on ethical principles.
